Blossoms Brown
They were allowed to bud,
even to bloom,
but life had no room,
so they returned to the womb.






unsuperlative
somedays i just want to belong
i don’t want to be strong
i don’t want to shout
i don’t feel like stickin’ out




White Pine
Atop are the children,
swaying,
the way Miss Darkis did.
Erasing the chalkboard
when I was a kid.
