about the author

what happens today
yesterday shrinks, tongue-tied like
a slender girl, polka-dotted and
trembling, head tucked to
her chest, collarbones entwined
like moss-covered branches
swaying in tomorrow’s
stormy breath.
he staggers
while spearmint whispers
belie the drunk thunder
bellowing in yesterday’s
ear, kicking in bleak rhythm
at the dirt, uprooting her
toes from the soil,
fingering a handful of
dandelion seeds
with a shit-faced
grin.
