city afternoon . . .

a cool breeze spiced

with pumpkin latte

apple cider and donut holes

on the refreshment table

—fall festival

running

out of words

tired poet

Stephen Jarrell Williams

eating the last piece

of bread in the world

nuclear toast

love song ...

through the soles

of my old sneakers

listening for the whisperings

of the street

Isabella Mori

across the lawn

the lawless reach

of blackberries
