fevered night
the clock ticking

rainstorm
a scorpion

fevered night
the clock ticking
slowly
—Audrey Quinn
rainstorm
a scorpion
out of hiding
—Audrey Quinn
first light
on hardwood floors
a slap of bare feet
—Audrey Quinn
his spectacles
full of smudges
bedtime story
—Audrey Quinn
all night rain
building a bouquet
of
Lego roses
Audrey Quinn
half-life
still brimming

Audrey Quinn
on Frida's doorstep
limonadas sweetened

Audrey Quinn
lightning flash
small hands soothe
the
dog to sleep
Audrey Quinn
under the lime tree
a spattering
of
rotten fruit
Audrey Quinn
high season
on sparkling water
a
ferry waits
Audrey Quinn
night fog
across the Sound
a
horn solo
Audrey Quinn
from adjoining terraces
the sounds of summer
sunscreen
mist
Audrey Quinn
night walk
two dogs
square
off
Audrey Quinn
