anxiety sight fleeting love sound crashing heart smell powdery perfume taste cherry lipstick touch goosebumps when we first touched anxiety trembles leaves in dappled maples shakes autumn branches rot leaves mulch under pine sleet wets my chilled lips peels bark on my childhood tree 15 words specific place linking words shed backyard butterflies burst like explosions bread for our conversation by the bench by the shed beneath the pine slender roots grinning mulberry by the bush butterflies burst bread for our conversation on the bend by the shed beneath towering pine grinning shade on slender roots carport in the carport they wheeled spun around in divergent paths away and toward us as we smiled at bursts invisible motion like wind contained garden rutabagas clumped in soil spread tethered in soft spaces digging holes deep dark greet the aphids and worms grin when pulled skyward Paris Explosions heard invisible bursts send bells clang clunk a clutter of trash swept like butterflies cartwheeling through slender whispered conversation Bakery slender sagged sough saddened on sheets shoved in stoves ovens rags swiped counters tears explosions of yeast emerge mighty bread Ignorant dynamite there were bells in the explosions who detonated that beautiful dynamite?
