// accumulated items inside a medicine cabinet // rumination on moving, the necessity of packing and unpacking // what we choose to take with us each time we move and what we reconcile leaving // space, it is confined // privacy and intimacy created by sorting through a box of goods, rearranging as we see fit and then returning them to the safety of being behind glass //
A Wednesday Poem (For A Young Man In Need Of Color) Following my eyes I keep leading myself to intersections: A rich oasis nestled in the hollow between scrub-mowed corn fields A stream running below a shallow arc in the road A flat horizon pulled taught across an expanse of deep clay suspended within the body of this lake a mustard invitation to the promise of green a red crescent drawn below the eye of a fish out of water… Color found at the edges of things
