Pursuit of the Storm
Maybe I’m just older and more sensitive
May 17, 2021
The world has been windy lately —
more buzz, more twitchy
pushes of dune building exhalation.
The news man says it’s the same
as always, but it must not be
if he’s asked enough to comment about it.
Maybe I’m just older and more sensitive
to the weather. I never noticed
the forest pansy trees and their purple
until I came of age.
