Psychologically still thirteen
Ordinarily meaning pre Internet days
familiarization with me would entail
bringing the avid listener

“Forever”
When The Terrors came,
The Uncontrollable Ones,
she closed her eyes
and listened for the notes
her mother had planted
amongst the deep blues,
beds of Forget-Me-Nots,
she followed the

and through a gate unhinged,
it would seem destroyed, thrown aside,

The Board

Windborne, lover of heights,
unspooled from the truck’s wildly lurching embrace,
you climb, skittish kite...

Erin

bright carrot?and her milkmaid-pallid skin,
her brilliant air of cavalier despair,
