Hours

You were the open door
And the view
And the morning breeze
That whispered to me
To go and see.
Go and see
What the world was like
Beyond my borders
Where there were beautiful things and people and
colors and God and
ideas I'd never thought To think...Just through the
open door.

Starting with Valentine's Day weekend, Nexus is going to begin a third Saturday Open Mic! Come out and sing about how beautiful/wince-worthy/complicated/transcendent your love life is! I'll be there to commiserate/celebrate with you, and there will be wine 🍷🍾 Also, @micahbboswell27 and I (Willa & the Spectacles) will be playing a short set. I've got some new originals to share that are pretty heartbreaking and who knows who else might show up to play! Hope you come :) Happy Impending Valentine's Day, everyone ❤️🎙️🍷🎶

Home is that place where
No one asks me
where I'm from;
Where recycling is an art,
And geriatric hippies
Protest the cutting down
of Trees, and the dropping of bombs
with peace signs and
Tanks for their oxygen;
Where men in three-piece suits
Ride bikes and longboards to
work for the love of it;
Where we all hike tall
Mountains in search of vistas
When the fog
Clears off the bay;
Where pedestrians gather on
The red bridge
to watch the whales passing below
and count spouts
Until there are too many
to count.

Home is where you don't
feel the ache to be
Home.

Perhaps in a lifetime
As brief as ours
The line between
The beginning and the end
Is of our own imagining.

The sun reaches
this corner too -
East to West
East to West -
And everything it touches burns,
And everything begins again.

He's more pale than I've ever seen him, but he's got that strength in his bones.
Thanks for the vibes, y'all. Phase one is passed.

You'll never find it when it rains.
The back roads wash into the gullies, you see,
But a mile past the pavement,
Down a hill that was too steep
When I was young,
And over the creek bed,
Is what might seem like a dead end,
to you,
But to me
It was only ever home.

A poem for my Grandpa. Surgery happens at noon tomorrow. Send all the light and love.

Back in the house that built me.
