The Key Between Stranger Realms - Day Three
On this ordinary morning, 110°F, I’m lost in traffic, daydreaming about swimming in the ocean. A young woman straddles her Schwinn bicycle at the crosswalk nearby. Her appearance is entirely uncoordinated—hyacinth high-tops, striped cargo pants, a black and crimson baseball jersey, and a floral bucket hat.

Petunias and promises Grow in the garden of my mouth Some spill on crepe paper Others wither before they bloom Some smell of sweet defiance

World Gone Silent
Screaming winds shake and rattle the house, worse it shakes the trees loose In a moment, all connection to the world is lost and I feel ... alone

The Key Between Stranger Realms - Day Two
On this ordinary morning, after gulping an ice-cold cup of energy, I spot a cautious stranger waiting to cross the street with his best friend: a short-haired dog with stripes on her coat and a gaping grin that could earn a pup-cup from the generous barista around the corner.
