Mirrored waters tranquil—a soothing elixir.
Tidy up and make ...

an ear clapping, full sailed, fog

where green is thread through
with a trailing mud.
A late fruited decay seeps and smears

far out beyond the shore,
wearing my father's waders,
the ones I always adored.

Spoke to people along the way

I Almost Pooed My Pants
...With my fishing vest and waders, and a found long wooden staff
I walked along the jetty, on a rock-piled curvy path
The day had grown to darkness, with no light there to be found
When something...
