I rode my bike downtown
to a book convention today
Ideal fall weather
faintly breezy, lenticular clouds
A Spanish infused live poetry reading
black wavy hair and red cracked lips
shared a progression of life
Struggles, love lost, displeasures, evolving
How one can return to the same place
and experience it twenty different ways
To discover yourself refined
New understandings of places in life
Verses drifting like smoke inhaled by listeners
I purchased Street Art of Las Vegas
and thought of you
The Ferguson houses
twisted stacked balancing
cobalt blue and silver big rig trucks
Neon elastic rainbow string art instillation
Arched doorways with antique wood fixtures
Pixeled windows reflecting pastels
Cold cement layered theater seating
A dirt path waving through fresh green grass
I stumbled upon Mothership coffee Roasters
settled in and got lost in my head
Assam black tea fog with oat milk
silky smooth exquisiteness
A solitary moment in time
pleasantly beautiful
I closed my eyes and wished you here

Thanks so much for this amazing, refreshing piece Breelyn, I could breathe in the essence of downtown vibes without having to leave my hermet-pod in the woods. Such a gift!
