This, our writing, is not for our to-do-lists. We wake up and write and sleep and write. If we are writers, we do not forget.

Lovelorn honeybee repeat after me:

blushing builds no bravery

to strut is not the same as dirty sea legs nor shameful

say mountain like you mean it

Dealt the aces wild, delve

and don’t come back without a promise

packing heresy in your haunches

say I am what’s missing most
