starscape

thunderstorm 

starscape collapses into landscape 

we take cover inside hoods and waxed overcoats 

microburst 

washed out. blown. illuminated by pixels 

thugging it out

6.20

call on unseen forces reverse spin rising out of the vortex 

breathless shaking life

 solstice

earth and sun

in a liminal place

like us

friday afternoon in the Chinese restaurant

steam rising off these bowls

tanks bubbling with black bass

and dungeness

shifting effortlessly 

from work to

play

#katyamills

the realm

in the films
the screenplays
in the drawings
the realm
of extant suffering
intensity of
euphoria

#katyamills

terrible lie

as the sky
scrapes by
the moon
wide eye
sees through
your terrible
lie

sunbeam

you love you work
hard like usual
then dry into cement
your shadow
got up and rambled
left you spent and
scrambled
all night
they rambled
you lean into a rhythm
break out on a sunbeam
you work you love
hard like usual
