Imitating Reflection
I love how the sky and the water meet in the distance in similar shapes. The picture makes the brackish water beautiful because it meets the sky.
Reading from “Hidden in Childhood”
I read the poem titled “The Girl Who Should Have Been a Boy” by Alethea Kehas, who writes at The Light Behind the Story. This was at an event in Hartford called “Other People’s Poetry.” The rule is that you can’t read your own poems, so I was happy to read from this magnificent anthology.
The anthology is available here. Thanks as always to Gabriela Marie Milton for publishing this wonderful book.

“Float” for #tankatuesday
My wife will tell you: I can't float. For her, floating is yielding to the strength of water. To slow down, inhale deeply, held by its power. Me? I am on top of the water for a moment before my breathing quickens My belief evaporates And I am taken under by water's power.
