It isn't as though any
things between then, with the
     back-seat half-views through to
     the crackling gravel of a
     stopped car out the door
     far into the woodland hollow before
     any parent's call could curtail the
     bursts of firecracker leaves crunched kicked
     into a frenzy of swirls by blowhard
     bearhug uncle gusts down for a visit with
     senile grandmother autumn's claws digging
     up goosebumps and shiver giggles only since
     she meant no harm afterall and the boughs that
     trembled with winter's warning whispers get
     ready for snow! they said and I
was, and now
have changed.

Cheap tricks parents try to get away with	Shoeshine nostalgia	Villages in Germany are three kilotons apart	Her innocence fell. She kicked at it some, frowned, and left it there because it was beautiful.
Non-identifying information and the intimate details that followed	Such pretty white points. So sharp.	This thunderstorm intimacy	She does not rustle but her flesh has the moonlit shade of a silver birch
I thought I'd take a walk today. It's a mistake I sometimes make.	She sang of fantastic green islands, and sparkling fish, never telling that she haunted the waters	Sounds cool and means nothing	My words are the only gift I have for you
Programming killed the story problem	When you fly like thunder, I am reminded of Icarus and Bellerophon. How does your myth end?	Flying high on busted wings	ha ha only serious
The Secret Garden	It's been years since we were born	It's late, and I'm tired	The third wor*d war
Playground ruin, beware: live wires	Because he feared the turn of seasons	Critical skills for the modern reader	Things you don't want to hear (but will) when you get into bed with a girl
