Reading by iPad light
Or find light
illumination
wherever you can
And with a sigh
call it good

Paper, emails, messages, class assignments They arrive faster than a roadrunner cartoon Anvils rain from the sky Duck! Hide under the desk! “Take me down to the river” She whispers Where tufts of white Glide between stone blue ice Two, then four, then more Silent as statues Three observers One human, two not Watch from…
I like that idea of seeing darkness as romance…I hope to start spending some time out at night watching the stars.
