Through the morning mist
The headlights shine, lighting up
the dull grey highway

Poem of the Day 10/6/20
All of the miles bleed
Into one road,
Red and blue lines
Spiderweb out
Like veins and arteries,
Across the screen
Directing me out
To the distant limbs
Of the city
And back again,
To your beating heart,
Quaking against me
As I fall asleep,
To wake again,
The quiet streets shaking off the night
And pulsing to life.
Poem of the Day 10/2/20
Listening to songs
About going home, on the highway,
And singing along
Poem of the Day 9/16/20
Driving past strip malls,
After the morning rush hour,
Windows down- a cool breeze
Poem of the Day- 7/25/19
Everybody slows
the wreck, crumpled, smoking, still
curiosity rolls past tragedy
Poem of the Day 7/23/19
Bruce sings-
“The screen door slams,
Mary’s dress waves”
In that broken-asphalt voice
And I am gone
Gone to a summer night,
Up a backwoods road,
The taste of salt in the air
Your scent on my fingers
The docks alight in the distance
And Neptune on the rise
The windows down to keep us cool
Another lost summer night
Poem of the Day 6/20/19
Morning, shrouded in mist,
the starter turns over, a rumble
tires on a wet road
