become true only

in the present.

I WILL BE DOING A POETRY READING TODAY AT THE UTAH ARTS FESTIVAL!

Hollow skies empty

rain onto the earth.

Feet plastered in mud

skin wet and ready

to grow.

Pulling away

I am trying to

reposition my heart

in this new reality

you created.

The world calls out

in waves of blue water

and bird chirps. Trying

to fit myself somewhere

in between the earth

and water.

Darling hearts

dancing in light

hopeful glances

betray words

of caution.
