RC deWinter
what/if
the dogwood's blooming the trees are green but the flagstone's cold on my bare feet almost freezing it's been an atypical spring everything written in the harsh hand of so it goes get used to it pilgrim nothing's the same anymore the landscape broken into a patchwork of safe and not most of it not so we wait for the scythe to be satisfied wondering how we can fix this if we can fix this without what has been been taken by the tide
