Unsanctified Worship

Sometimes -
she looks cold, and bitter
Wearing-
the leftover robe of Winter

Like spit on the ground
Her messed up land
Makes cows frown
In December
She never smiles
Mile after mile...

Sweet Potatoe Candy

Sweet south
I breathe you
On my porch swing
We blend in

Becoming a harmony of memories
As creeping night shrouds all eyes
I adore...
