So, the kids are at school--

"I have to get out of here.

I have to do something else today.

I cannot sit in this house."

Ideas?

near the mountains

there is a new moon

and the embers of a fire.

there is a new room

full of tarantulas, I've heard,

and a nest to crawl into.

of ropes, of ropes.

and bees crawl through

plexiglass holes.

from hexes of wax

small legs flow and

wings to find flowers--

they memorize

nearby the russian sage.

another russian sage

in a sage vest--

yellow buttons--

makes nectar, red.

Yevgeny. red.

red for butterflies.

red is for butterflies.

and sometimes hummingbirds.
