Start your day with a fresh perspective
“all is the color / of falling snow”
“his Buddhist robe / is drier than a yellow leaf”
“When the world / Disappears under your feet / Are you falling or / Flying?”
“At my window / the rain raves, raves about dying”
An excerpt from the novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous
begun October 1, 2018 [for arthur mcgee, d. July 2018]
“I’m sick of peering at the ego. / No, my ego’s tired of peering at me— / It’s she who awakens me into being.”
“the screen / stays backlit and empty / thus I meet myself again / hopeful and useless / a mystery”
“A life of debts I could never repay / pushing in on all sides / like the weight of the sea.”
