2024, Ohio River Valley Literature, poetry

Saturday morning is a rockabilly country song

this note left hanging in the air being able to sleep in beside you warm as the house takes on an October tempo. there is a verse or two of coffee and bacon and wrapping my arm around your waist the scent of your hair is sleep and citrus and I would in this moment crawl into your skin for safety and warmth, but the chorus sings for the river the smell of deisel and currents shimmering under moonlight.
