the Collab bird
From last year, at Likestarlings, JMW and Hoa Nguyen doing their collab thing.
***
Posting on the occasion of everybody's sunlit fire-escapes. On the occasion of melting toys. The grainy remembrance of cross-country breathing; the long freeways that fill my body; letters to people & of people. Air, sea, couch. On the occasion of every snowy afterthought being cohesive and still. The occasion of poetry being something we will count in years / something we count by rolling out of bed / rolled over the window panes this morning // counted poems for you in the dimples of our roof.
Happy Birthday J!

where strange birds purr
