Summer Solstice Rest me sleepy now on the window of your collar bone where I might lay waste to these human requirements and simply appreciate the home I’ve found in your heart

Lupine Lonely where weeds fear to grow I thrive catching beads of life from the arid sky but no one comes here much and I have added you to the list of those who left me #phelpslake #tetons #poetry #lupine #photography #nativeplants #plantphotography #nature

When it’s time to go Leave me in the Boston Mountain highlands Covered in Rosa setigera And the prayers Of chuck willows and blue birds #bluesky #mountains #poetry #art #photography #clouds #eulogy

Purple and pink clouds hang low in the evening sky, hovering over grassy hills and a stone path that leads to a small fire pit.

We shared shores separate but as a single entity Now we are Circumspect and side-lying masquerading mountains divorced from the Western Interior Seaway with striations where our water used to be We, such brief bursts of being, are stranded Me far from thee #mesa #mountains #bluesky #loml

The woods are my church my home my nation my final revelation and someone must wade in the creek at the end of the world It will be me #bluesky #keepyoursuburbs #wild #iamhappierwithnothing

Mesas dotted with evergreen trees, boulders, and scrub brush; massive lines of water erosion and changing water levels are visible as black striations that run horizontally across the massive structures

You shall not pass! 🤣 #birds

A male and female Baltimore Oriole on an orange jelly feeder. The female on the left is holding on to the feeder pole that looks like a staff and has her beak open. There is half an orange above her. The male is looking at her very intently. The birds are black and orange.

*This picture was taken by a Missourian on the Oklahoma-Arkansas border, three of the states that rely on the complex Ozark aquifer system of the Ozark plateau. Red clay dirt road seamed between the rolling green foothills of the Ozark Mountains, an old barbed wire fence positioned to the left of the red road

Here’s my #TuesdayTips for fellow authors. In the words of Stephen King, “The path to hell is paved with adverbs.” Despite reading his book and writing for 20+ years, I produced a novel with a frail and overstimulating storyline. Rewrite time! Never give up, friends!

I splintered Before I came Into Being And wander this earth, A luna moth In a mine field of Nazis I’m very pleased I don’t fit in With the likes of them #poetry #nationalparks #grandcanyon #neurodivergent #wander #hiking #weirdosunited
