I wore Birkenstocks

with socks, fleece, a knit hat. does

that count as gorpcore?

we looked at, stood in

front of trees at the Nation-

-al Arboretum

Brooks: damnatio
memoriae’d, first by chalk,
and later by rain

sink is flank’d by dish
racks, including one over
defunct dishwasher

two cats, enjoying
sunshine and the flavor of
the new sheer curtains

broke dad’s sander
while isolating with parents
(it’s fine, he fixed it)

finished making a
footstool last month. should have used
thinner hairpin legs.

salve Mutinus
Tutinus, you rock solid
god! please stay away

geese walk into the
unfrozen part of Lake Anne
after months away

he’s looking at you
through new coffee bean eyes (good
for never blinking)
