one

i drove in the opposite direction--
towards the falls, the river with budding rocks--
away from the school. already 20 minutes late leaving
in a van with no doors.

i parked between douglas firs, then sat
watching the rapids settle.

  4. Calming and freeing. I love days where I decide to blow off whatever I'm supposed to do, to do something I want to do. Can't do that all the time, but when I can... ahhh....
