Greenfield, driving back to Indy

 

All you can do

sometimes

is park

on the road

get out of the car

and stare

at the sun-heavy cornfields.

Stimming

 

Click pen,

Up down click. At

school desk, click, work desk, click.

Clock tick. Eyebrows grey. Life click lived

By click.

lose usually You.

of the lightweight

Afternoon of June 10, 2023

there's something going on between the evening breeze and the mimosa

~Roberta Beach Jacobson

the time I got caught at dusk with secret polynomials

It is dark as night

Static fills the air

Just before the rain

If only

The rest of life

Were as predictable
