Entire Life Of Hitchhiking
Cedar trees covered in snow
The clean light of winter
A car on the road
the way slick oil paints are collisions
of quick sand on canvas
far beyond the great Canadian wilderness
where forest and mountains
fill electrical wire noise
Remembering to dismiss all thoughts
and memories under clean bone marrow
of baby deer and forgotten elk fur
There is only room to look out the window
There Is No Effective Way To Stay Awake
Knowing every raindrop by name
the way west coast clouds grew
like headaches
they stayed the same throughout the night
the pulse was a ticking clock
calculating the seconds in time
Dreaming through open eyelids
the wipers stood up and lay down
across a windshield
without any effect at all
she could not see the lines
on the road
or anything about the weather
