showing his friend
how he could shoot,
he nailed a bird
at three hundred feet.
how he could shoot
a mourning dove
on a high, taught wire
perched close to his love.
the mourning dove
at the crack of the shot
dropped in a clump
by the road to rot.
at the crack of the shot
his wife not far
asked what bird
he’d shot from the car.
his wife in the car

Ode on a Grecian Urn. John Keats.
Thou still unravish’d bride of quietness, Thou foster-child of silence and slow time, Sylvan historian, who canst thus express A flowery tale more sweetly than our rhyme: What leaf-fring’d legend haunt about thy shape Of deities or mortals, or of both, In Tempe or the dales of Arcady? What men or gods are these? What maidens loth? What mad pursuit? What struggle to...

a minor bird
I have wished a bird would fly away, And not sing by my house all day; Have clapped my hands at him from the door When it seemed as if I could bear no more. The fault must partly have been in me. The bird was not to blame for his key. And of course there must be something wrong In wanting to silence any song. Robert Frost

urban dictionary - morgan
1. Morgan - She’s the most beautiful girl you will ever see. Every feature that she posseses is engraved in your mind from the second you lay eyes on her. Morgan is not limited to just physical features, her personality is equally as beautiful. You wonder how it is that a person this extraordinary can exist, but find yourself just appreciating the fact that she exists, and even better yet,...

“Haïti”
Haïti, mon pays, Wounded mother I’ll never see Ma famille set me free. Throw my ashes into the sea. Mes cousins jamais nés Hantent les nuits de Duvalier. Rien n’arrte nos esprits. Guns can’t kill what soldiers can’t see. In the forest we are hiding, Unmarked graves where flowers grow. Hear the soldiers angry yelling, In the river we will go. Tous les morts-nés forment une armée Soon...

As much as I appreciate the zombie Mr. T you sketched (that is hung on our refrigerator, by the way), there are a few things we need to set straight. I had reservations about you from the beginning; I thought you might suffer from a chronic case of Cool Kid Syndrome. Despite my feminine appearance, I have a long history of having dated nerds/geeks. Some of them...
