Cold PlacesIn late fall all colors vanish in snaps of ice.Cold Places
This is the time when seasons hover close;
fall tosses back her auburn hair
and places a golden palm
against winters icy cheek.
She whispers to him
in the language of twigs breaking
and birds screaming from far away.
Soon my love, she mummers,
Very soon.
All preparations have been made.
The harvest is in,
the grain bundled safely away from frost,
spears sharpened, and baskets filled.
The caribou push through mud with eager hooves;


ShellsYou and I went to the beach once a year when the ocean air had sharp, salty teeth that nipped our cheeks and made them pink with life. Despite the cold, we always threw our shoes and socks in the trunk beside the spare tire and the vestiges of summer. As we crested the dune the sky would be spread out before us, iron hull grey and merging seamlessly with the distant sea. Youd always say that this was as close as wed ever get to standing at the edge of the world, the closest wed ever come to catching a glimpse of the flaming Sword at Edens Gate. We both knew that if we ever saw the Gate it might be an opportunity for usShells


and we found...we love like we sin, terrified and breathless.and we found...
we are tea-at-midnight girls, naming constellations that don't exist after lost tourists we meet on the street, reminding our freckle covered shoulders that even beautiful things can be made ordinary.
we are broken fingers and half-closed eyelids and a penchant for mischief. we are ribbon skin and frantic desires and incandescent hope. we are a voice spilling secrets to falling leaves diving after their arachnid brothers,
mimicking the millions before us who were judged unfairly, unjustly but all too correctly.

"As I have practiced it, photography produces pleasure by simplicity. I see something special and show it to the camera. A picture is produced. The moment is held until someone sees it. Then it is theirs."
