sometimes you just want to be
without the worry of having to "be yourself"

I don't think I'd much enjoy being famous

but I wouldn't mind being well known 

anyone can plant some seeds
but water doesn't fall from the sky
(if the sky is your roof)

of course, you could always tear apart your empty cereal box and have part of your shopping list pre-filled

if you need more room, peel apart the layers of paperboard and there's a fresh, clean backside!

Miss Under
stood low
in the ranks of academia

backyard mountains stretch slantways
leaking afternoon fire on the desert road
heat whispers and magic dust swim into our hands

water droplets stand
shiver, tremble, and shake off
I exit the bath
