7/30

Dropped off the work, drawings you never saw,
In a place that is delightful and good to show in.
Lunch was fun.

7/28

Spent the last few days gathering work 
To show in a few places. Little hope this 
Will bring returns

But I try, I try, I wish I could be more effective.
Hah, something I have never been, but
Still I try.

7/26

Tripped on a dog, and woke to a sprained foot
Tripped on myself and realize there is no one to help
Tripped on life.

7/25

Friends, dear couple, come visit, something for which
I am always thankful, because I do know that living here?
Few will come.

And truth, that is not totally the place’s fault.
Fault need also be accepted by me, for who will come
Visit? Not many.

7/18

Again I have driven, and driven, and driven,
I am glad to see my mother and wish I could see
her more often

But I live too far away from her, too far 
From all I love. Who do I love now, who will
love me back?

So this too hot day I drove away, drove back here,
to the last place we called home, where we had love but
not me alone.

7/8

A friend has bought her house, a wonderful place
A good place, she did so with ease. May again.
I find home.

7/4

Fireworks, walked to the neighbors, stood amidst the
The spray of sparklers, lights in the dark, as in childhood
Fire above water.
