*Picasso* Woman With Green Curls
On
The
Next
To
The
Last
Day
Of
The
Next
To
Last
Month
In
The
Frame
Of
Time,
I Became,
Afloat
On
A
Ship
Of
Earth,
A
Chip
Resisting
The
Sea.
I Grew
To
Be
Me,
An
Array
Of
Cells
That
Dwell
Within
My
Skin,
That
Constantly
End
And
Begin
Again,
Still
Existing,
Still
Resisting.

Wait,
Grope
In

I’ll

It
Ain’t

Livin’
In

I Got
Real
Tired,
You

Of
Workin’
For

Yawn,
And
One
Fine
Day,
I Was
Up
And
Gone.
I Stand

Goin’

A

Whiter

Deputy Sheriff Dale Jackson investigates a brutal murder, exposing heroin traffic in the New Mexico community he seeks to protect. Searching for information, a chance meeting with enticing but corrupt Elena Chavez and the sighting of two suspicious men at her apartment building leads him to engage in a devastating night with her. When he confronts the drug dealers, a gun battle ensues, and Dale is shot and gravely wounded. Hospitalized, he remembers the seamy events and the reckless things he did. He mourns what he considers to be his loss of integrity.

Nurse Sharon Mitchell encounters the handsome deputy in the hospital as he fights to recover. Attracted to the decent, exceptional, and intriguing man, she pursues him, trying to form a relationship. Dale warns her off him, but she’s determined to help him. Can Sharon reach him, or will he be ruined in his own eyes as an honorable man?

Some
Times
A
Painting
Can
Begin,
Then
Never
End.
Too
Much
To
Say
In
Just
One
Day,
It
Can
Become
A
Form
Of
Play,
Layers
Moving
From
Blue
To
Grey
To
White,
The
Whole
Surface
Sucking
Up
The
Light,
Cracks
And
Fissures,
Slashed
By
Scissors,
Precious
Liquid
In
A
Burst
To
Satisfy
The
Burning
Thirst
Of
Worlds
Gone
Awry,
Under
A
Shattered
Sky.
