Her voice deep ash and age
throaty backstroke
Years after the wandering uterus
nailed and stapled
I drew a Canadian map
guidebook loaned out
To scrape away the windshield’s ice
thumbtack sculpture
This cave unspelunkable
vocal dreamland
Melodies unmerry indigo plump
curling tumbler
Exact reminders of large mistakes
adoption farce
Padded envelope too large for mailbox
grainy photo
Ample embouchure for hammy carols
private key brace
I have grown remarkably since
Myrtle’s puppet
Post-polio smoking lessons
Saskatoon sky
Big-lipped canyon ladies
