Late summer in Powderhorn
August is lush and sweltering
No shelter from the
Searing yellow sun,
The hum of bees, white snakeweed
Dingy in the corners of the park
And after the late coming of the dark,
My heart turns inside out
Yet again,
After all this time.
I bite the bullets one after the other
And spit out my words
I struggle to keep still--
Summer is the time of
Movement, and I’ve been
Falling through the void
Of its green shadows
Drinking my fill of
Its bird-chatter-quick heartbeat
Pounding the pavement
Lost in hours of that song:
Keep living, keep walking
Keep moving on.

I decided to wear my new dress today. It gives me Gomez moon bathing vibes, and it has pockets.

someone said simon needs a vacation and now i can’t stop thinking about taking him up to my cabin up north. pouting at him to put on the little swim trunks you brought him so you and him can swim in the lake together. getting him a floaty that is just roomy enough to fit his big ass and tossing him a hard seltzer. rolling your eyes at him when he bulks at the can, “‘m not one for juice and alcohol, love.” and you just tell him that it tastes better on the water. after a few minutes of you two drifting off in the water in your floaties he tips his head back to look at you and asks, “this all you do up here?” yep. after a few hours you’re hollering at him up from the dock to come inside to help you make dinner and this motherfucker has the audacity to look up at you from under his stupid little sunglasses and tip his 5th hard seltzer at you and say, “lake life, love.” but you get the last laugh when he spends the rest of the night complaining about his nasty sunburn.
