confining classroom
breeze rolling through window
warms my cool skin

hear the call
from within
empty walls

his creaking staircase
stirs the owl.
he hoots

she drifts off
into a dreamless sleep
thorn-pricked finger

top quarter champion

top half champion

bottom quarter champion

a friend's brother's death
and mother's tears fill silence
I cannot relate

blackout
single stage
spotlight

waiting for you
see you in the distance
. . . or so I thought

state fair
spinning in circles
our eyes meet

top half champion

champion

bottom half champion

crashing water
rising mist
rainbows

ceilos azules
nubes blancos
respiracion de aire fresco

blue skies
white clouds
breath of fresh air

crack in the ice
walk slowly
across

sun barely peeking out
shoes tightly tied
the runner begins to stretch

top quarter champion

bottom half champion

bottom quarter champion

through the alleys of water
faded song
sitting next to you

new beginning
second chance at life
off to college

huff and puff,
cold ankles,
full moon

passing cars
in a concrete world
nature show
