Costa Rica
The thaw of a North Idaho winter
Found arms that held legs made for leaving
Something slipped, stuck.
The Spanish-English translation guides, lists of people with open couches, bikinis, bug spray, loneliness, guidebooks, sunglasses, mace, bottles upon bottles of XXX vitamin water, blue bandanas, brimmed hat, camera, passport, Band-Aids, emergency toilet paper, freedom, photos of your parents when they were together, addresses, phone cards, passport, comfort books, desire, shorts, and ideas for primitive first greetings were abandoned.
For love that hasn't understood
You've been packing
Pulling roots
Selling space.
About Me
- jkvern
- I go crazy. I get on binges. I think things will turn out fine, almost always. This is about...anything. How the world works, how I encounter it, how-to guides for being awesome, a place for poetry, and ultimately just a place to be free.
