dusty globe
—half the world
in a haze

-Robin Jacobson

another
moon phase
—teenager

-Robin Jacobson

tree branch empty
a lone bird
changes everything

-Robin Jacobson

twilight
figuring out
the rest

-Robin Jacobson

holding up
the world’s gardens
root people

-Robin Jacobson

grandma’s
crispy sugar cookies
crinkle of parchment

-Robin Jacobson

giving me
the cold shoulder
windchill

-Robin Jacobson

helping me
not to make the bed
cat

-Robin Jacobson

homeschooled
in my kitchen
ants

-Robin Jacobson

growing wild
in the garden
my hair
