Mississippi

I lost you
In the mud
On my feet
While I
Screamed
The missing sound
Of your name
In the dark

Come back
To me

The first part of healing
is growing away from
growing up with
the idea
that children can be born bad

My back yard
Is a dangerous
River
But
The Prairie Trillium
Blooms

It’s never all bad

Linden and I went mushroom hunting, but all we found was this Danger-Noodle-Nope-Nope-Rope

Pygmy rattlesnake (Sistrurus miliarius)

Seriously considering boycotting Meta. So much peace here… I share photos, you all share photos, and no one is trying to hack my feed and sell me shit…

When the SADs squeeze you
Run to your nearest art source
Spring winds are coming

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!

Sand dunes and storm clouds
They press the tiny mountains
My eyes are feasting

Bubba got his first chickens today! Names to follow. So far we’ve got Hard-layer, Heart-layer, and Strict-layer. He came up with these completely on his own 🤣 not kidding. #lindenglowery #chickens #farmerboy #missouri #toddler

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

Rusty yellows
And subtle reds,
Harsh water falling
Down

I hold my breath
And wait to see
A grizzled bear
Turn human

That’s the mistake
Sad Women make
While autumn leaves
Move on

My heart
Whines,
An echo
Inside a cavern

A dandelion seed
In a sandstorm

Disinherited Pluto
Against the backdrop
Of the Cosmos

“Sorry,
We thought
You were worth
Something”

With the wisp of my tongue
On the pad
Of my
Thumb
I turn the page
Of my novel
