I obsess over

The loss of life and shrink so

I may avoid it

29

Purple Rain was song
that came to mind that would help
me through the sadness

28

we talk religion
mom now knows brothers and I
just don't have that faith

27

cry about Noah
his death, his life, his impact
on me, a stranger

26

mom says chill pretty
frequently and it jars me
each time as foreign

25

learn Teague parrots too!
we repeat others words to
show we're listening

24

how the light changes

throughout the year, feel the earth

tilt on its axis

19

some days...put me on

a bus and my eyes will find

a reason to cry

18

Spider made a home
in my sink, and that's how long
I've not done dishes

15

my brain rattles, shakes
I get on a bus because
what else could I do?

14

Something's wrong, we coast 

downhill, through intersection.

Brakes are not working.

13

Yesterday, a truck
Today, a human being
First on set romance

12

I swoon over truck
And feel a little weird to
Love an object so

11

My steps still rain soaked
Layered leaves too wet to sweep
How long 'til they're dry?

10

How long has this chair
been stuck in the bushes out
my bathroom window?

8

Rain-soaked passengers
Fog the windows. Big dopey
Windshield wipers wipe.

7

I'm just living, it's
just a life, and these are my
favorite people.

6

Couple walks uphill
She tugs yarn-like plant on wall
He keeps on going

5

End of day slides in
Not sure where it came from or
Why it's notable

4

to go coffee cup 

stayed standing after I backed 

out from parking spot

3

Dreamt of Aaron G,

junior high crush, who hasn't

crossed my mind in years

1

There are always streets
You haven't walked down so try
Something new, ok?
