using correct participles
indentations leading her
properly configured paragraphs
never ending a sentence with a preposition
or speaking without
proper articulation
and fluid pictures are found
covering the transparency
with remnants of childhood
patterns and textures of fabrics
tasting late season June berries
adhesive of one hundred holiday envelopes
narrow stairs creaking after midnight
the distant pack of wild coyotes
she occasionally thinks in thoughts
overwhelmed with nostalgia
in moments not yet had
reconstructing the pressure
of speaking digestible clarity
his eyes from across the crowded bar
and the tang of scotch and
soda on his lower lip
