These Hills Exist






A Cacophony of Silent Redwood Trees




 I woke in Yosemite 
Jamie curled up next to me 
cupping my left breast, platonically
 her body morphs a furnace 
I find myself again 
inside of the tent this time 
with a single sheet tightly wrapped 
like a coroner's bag around my body 
the sun finally stretches its arms 
piercing the microscopic stitching 
and there is warmth 
stuffy warmth 
and the desire to desert the wilderness
