36 hours in the desert
I make a list of the strange things that happen: the dragonfly between the sheets, how it fluttered and almost broke its wing as I tried to coax it outside
how much film did you bring?
and I shrugged
everything I have
the bed its own work of art
devolving 
like ocean tide spilling up 
onto land
burgers
for dinner awake
at 5am light 
through the curtains
the back porch waiting
for coffee not wanting 
to wake him by midmorning
finally, delicious
black coffee and full sun
is there anything better?
sex midday
homemade bread
cherries, peaches
four bottles of wine
an entire day spent
reading my best friend’s book
a world of salt and witches and 
oceans bare feet
bare skin I teach him 
how to use my camera
my favorite
the one I loved completely
the first second I held it in my hands
