fiction 1.

the prairie is a generous runway    she stays above
the last emptied spaces of this dance
of this is nature forever
her thoughts stay above as
the clouds brush the bank

colorless as it seems she was born
with the highway   cutting in half the neighborhood
in half the walk      
she’d never know

her thoughts, half formed in that gym

what she would worry about
if she could see
the heat coming off   the accessible bliss

2. he held the gun stupidly
towards her blue hair

her blue hair and       
tulsa talks too much

like a voice under the pavement where I walk
for nature    
in stella and umbro to QT

life's first ideas in fresh cursive
mom's little flowers on the envelopes in the back of the pew while

dad sat for his sermon in fractured foot

3. the simpler names hiding

in a winter, colorless
shining exactly
on the hatchet she found in her car
a bloodied napkin

the above stay thoughts forever
her nature is this dance
the blue is her shit

what I would want to worry
