SUMMER /
27 june
the swampy heat. driving his car along the rough country roads. how in the morning as I prepared to leave he came to get me in the early dawn light: look, deer! an everyday occurrence for him yet he knew they would enchant me as they tiptoed across his lawn, their taut living bodies so close. thunderstorms. how I wept as soon as I waved to him from my car window, weeping now, still, to recall it & how terribly I’ve missed him every day since. a soft mist over the landscape as I drove south towards my flight.
