Musings and Poetry

My collection of poems, stories, and fitful spurts of creative energy.

New Skin

The Summer is torn from my skin.
Salty, glistening, oily droplets are
Pummeled by the Fall rain.
Cool air and water tighten
My pores and wash away
Lazy, overheated streaks of sweat.

My body was swollen and melted.
Now it awakens and drinks
The watery wind.
