“…this
is your moment–the one
you’ll remember (the hot breath
of August breeze, the sun
white in the sky, the trickle of sweat
on his neck

Laura Kasischke, Palm


“Swords and Friendship the card says.
Monday your lucky day, seven is rare.

You will encounter a great, lasing friendship.
The future beckons; your loves will prosper”
