20 days and 20 nights
the sun rays and rotations
into moonlight
tree fires and trenches
wired fences
private property signs
citations, jailed for trespassing
crimes
aching, wine to calm my anxieties
folks who claimed piety was denying
me hope
in public restrooms with soap
temporary chapter with an ego fracture
but in these times and sessions
I realized after rising out the storm to
count all my blessings
