Music in a room

And some could be friends power

My pedaling home

30

Grin for days melts to
Need to sit alone on roof
My two sides are clear

29

Aborted spa trip
But a sunny dining room
Is not what I need

28

my days are too full
I have a desperate need
for alone, quiet

27

His weekly show ends
Nearly 2 years ago this
Became my reset

26

Dakota and I
Climb on Drew's back as if he
Had to prove his strength

25

Stef's outta LA
She left Dijon's ashes and
Friendship reminders

24

Our routine plus Stef

Climb a mountain, drink coffee,

Go to market, rest.

23

I'm outside with Drew
When I step into a halo
A real life angel

22

Dirt road, we're lost
Address that doesn't exist
Curve corners, baffled

21

Flashbacks of visits
That she's made before while I
Circle the airport

20

Tidy house to new
Lonesome Leash album, then head
To Hyperion

19

Neighbors pass me, say,
"That looks nice whatever you're
doing." Smile, "It is."

18

Nearly sleep through shift
Make it in 16 with dreams
From night distracting

17

We talk through our hikes
Make most of Joshua Tree
A day in desert

16

Lightening in sky
So we settle in the van
As rain pours + floods

15

Designed, built bed frame
Nothing fancy; sturdy, sound
I am a builder

14

Thought living alone
Would be hard, but alone time
Has to be planned out

13

His voice inspires thirst
Along with awe as he fills
Auditorium

12

Eat nasturtium leaves
On way from one thing to next
Compare leaf, flower

11

Head to Hollywood
To hear Walt play new record
We're moved by our friend

10

Get to know new friends

Over hysterics, new world

I'm setting my course

9

I enter my house
Unsure why but door's ajar
It became a home

8

Car rolling backwards
And we're half in it, half out
For a moment stunned.

7

Little girl smiles at me
I smile back, she waves, I wave
Windshield between us

6

I will live simply
Work and cook and read and sweat
Write and talk with friends

5

Gather to make a
New home for the good people
Dinner and singing

3

Consistently give
A day each week back to self
To do what I will

2

A new quiet spot
Realization follows
I now feel alone

1

Unpack a new home
I don't feel uprooted and
My things are all here
