the big picture
Launch
Staring from the blacktop
at my daughter’s school
at the wrong
section of sky
until over the other
line of trees
an orange light
I didn’t expect
grabs me
and then I can’t
look anywhere else
startled by each flare
of separation
as pieces drop away
and come home
and what remains
drops the last of its hue
and keeps going.
Undone Europa
space is
Floating a little
Elegy
Wanderlust #5: irresistible to women

I pulled the phrase “irresistible to women” (as in “women can’t resist him”) from a current magazine and reclaimed the phrase. (Basically I believe women can have “irresistible pulls” that are non-romantic in nature, for example a pull towards science!) The text I have redacted is the 1829 piece “Curiosity: A Poem.”
