Poet, Sarah Redfield — framing life with words east of the Willamette meridian.
Water body. Clouds mind. Grasses life. Reflected. Connected yet separate by the horizon. Darkness is here. I befriend it. Thursday. Rain. Hope the Scorpio’s karma.

Looking towards the first quarter moon. Tonight at sunset. Finished the first sequence of my project. Energized and exhausted at the same time. Wednesday. At peace. For now.

Coyote runs across the desert. Alone. Trickster. Prophet. I listen closely. Nothing. A drop of rain. Wednesday. A little off. So it goes. Think I’ll just edit.

Moon’s back was to Venus as I stepped out. Early morning. Cold. Sunday. Just when I thought the poem was going so well. Starting over.

Nature sees all. Aspen bark. Third eye. Wednesday. Appears that systems are falling apart. La Niña. Sun for a moment.

Morning brought a notion. Emotions are primordial. And from the beginning. Wondering if they’re an ancient elixir of thought. A trigger for creating language. Crying came first. Monday. Project moving forward. Quesadillas for lunch.

Imagination. Words. Images. Story. Tapping into places never seen before. All’s good today. Thursday. Saw a butterfly glide a spider’s web.

Looking inside. Small opening of light surrounded by shadow. New project moving slowly. Mindful. Finally. Saturday. Water still running through canal. The air is still.

Three poems ready to submit. Friday. Setting intention to re-envision life moving forward. Not for indulgence, but survival. For survival. I think everyone knows what I mean.

The way the clouds covered the sun. Light to dark on the brick laid road. Remember. The two of us on bikes through the morning streets of Loreto. As we did before. Laughing. Roosters crow. Wind blows along the malecón. Echo of a lost dream.

Sun almost. Outside, dog sniffs, cars pass, tires hum loud, east through Dry Canyon. Hum miles away. Hum countries away. Hum continents away. Hum and whir and screech across this precious Earth telling the Universe: we don’t care.
