The Sounder
I was on two knees,
hands grasping needles
of pine and silt, when
I saw the sun eclipsed
by a primordial silhouette
The sounder entire
had come to me -
boars, sows, and
striped progeny -
descending in numbers
towards the gorge,
and diverging around me
like a pierced rivulet
But the three behind
halted ten feet beyond
with eyes straining,
frantic to reveal me,
and footsteps...

elegantly, it crawled along the sheets
as a benevolent wraith
across our bodies
We tried to continue

Nietzche
She liked that look in his eyes -
that gaze which said

She wanted to possess it,
to have that edge,
but she was unfamiliar
with earning
So, she told her father
she didn’t like his terms,
and she left;
crashed on some couches;
burned some bridges
She dismayed when
her phone stopped working

The Creek
He walked out along the creek.
Its water clear as glass; its currents converging and diverging to create scars upon its trembling surface. He placed each step carefully - not to disturb the water and cloud it. He had walked for three miles before reaching the treefall. The bark had sloughed off in great heaps now growing moss, and he could smell the tree’s decay along the banks. Just below,...
