Photo, and a Poem: Holding

Grandfather Cuts Loose the Ponies, by David Govedare
Vantage, Washington
Photo by me, film, Nikon, color.

Hi there, from a while back, revisited. Hope you like the poem. <3, C.A.

Holding

In loving, some say I travel
off-road,
but maybe it's my job to leave
the Earth.

Holding.

Maybe I'm a violet guest
living
in a starched-white diner made
for the others,

unattached,

but dear God
where is my Roman Café.
I could make

more muscles,
or slim down for the shot,
dying by light.

Big.

In loving, some say I travel
off-road.
In loving, I say I'm someone big
like you.
