cricket

what colour is my mood can you guess?
he looked her over carefully toe to head... a dangerous red. tequila sunrise in the morning. take warning?
wrong! it's a cricket wheat. safely blending in a bale of California hay 
in the heat!

signal

she stayed until the last sign

and signal

the chemistry between them

like fireflies 

only then could she release his hand

having left this world

for the next

March 16

you don't need a riot to change. usually. unless you live in Port-Au-Prince or Moscow. my heart wanted to riot the years i was unseen. i blew up on those i loved. conditions deteriorated. relationships. i had to get right with myself. find a way to talk about it.   #katyamills

some boys

I made us rice and vegetables with soy sauce in bowls. we both used the chopsticks. I taught you how but you had not really wanted to learn but finally did. you lay back and held on to your belly carefully like there was a baby in there. Some boys can get pregnant. It's 2024.   #katyamills

Redington Beach

strange summer sky. long thin pier we trod the planks corridor of pelicans standing on the rails in quiet anticipation. hunger. there's a man calling out got an amber jack on his line. want your picture taken? no thanks. today you travel leaving the storm behind. my soul lives inside a flash. it's a black and white deal.

March 13

mid March. nature reborn and men calling after women they want on the street. she dressed bland to blend in with the land of concrete. and when that didn't work she was torn. must I be mean or can I be sweet?   #katyamills
