Lot of pic posts these days, huh? I guess I've been a little one note. There's change and smoke in the dry late summer air and I'm feeling like something is coming on. One of my girlfriends told me, in the casual feminine way, that she wanted me to know that she always had my back and I heard myself telling her "Thank God, I'm sure going to need that coming up" before I even knew what I was talking about. Maybe the end of Legends, maybe a certain Saturnine twist in myself, maybe just my bullshit meter being finally full up.
I've been working on my dumb book. I'm working on a new poem about mountains and violence and men and Confederates and it's pretty good. Here's my best tercet from it so far, a mix of imagery and actual quotes I heard:
Storm clouds screening in like so much cavalry,
south along the bruise-blue Allegany.
I’m going to say it until you fucking love me.
I don't know. I feel okay. Beach next week.
