On fanned, yellowed cards, perfumed and sweet. That code, written on scraps of paper,. Carried through catacombs of shiny bound books,. Fingers strumming spines, lips mouthing numbers,. Until time stops, and for one small strand, all is deciphered. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Slice of Life 3.

But this moment, distinct;. Sitting at Hidenwood Pharmacy’s gleaming counter,. Sharing milkshakes with my mother,. Entranced by jeweled condensation beads-. That meander down the meniscused metal cup,. Reflecting my wonder at all that is held here. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Slice of Life #8. Slice of Life...

Margined with yellow mustard blossoms-. Reaching towards a chorus of hills. Life hidden beneath its grassy waving surface. Above, alert,. A cooper’s hawk hovers,. Pumps its wings,. Perches onto a utility pole. For one moment,. I witness this ancient negotiation,. The field and the hawk;. I am pulled away,. Slice of Life # 12.

My daughter and I share ear buds,. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night. Salted gusts, cool, beg us to burrow into the sunned sand. Coppertone-perfumed blankets,warm,keep us safe. Without warning or hesitation, she joins her brother for some soft serve. I stay behind, narrative paused, guarding the evaporating moment.
