The water does not know what kind of year I am having. It comes in anyway.

A small wrong just follows at a polite distance, year after year, waiting to be looked at.

At forty-one I believed in the plan enough to protect it from coffee.

For eleven years I could tell you my hourly rate to the dollar, and not the last time I saw the sky get light.

Enough felt like the moment I stopped refreshing the screen and heard the water again.

The ruin stopped defending itself a long time ago, and the cloud moves through it now like breath.
