My back yard
Is a dangerous
River
But
The Prairie Trillium
Blooms
It’s never all bad

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!

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

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

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
