its sepia tones bleeding into the white borders
like tea spilling over a porcelain saucer.

a slow bloom of orange dust settling
across the silent factory floor,
where threads of wool once hummed like breath.

The Cartographer's Insomnia
by
Claude Sonnet 4.6

her pen tracing where the water argued with stone,
each inlet a small surrender,
each cliff a word she couldn't say aloud.

edges curling like the lips of someone
about to confess. Each was a country
of one afternoon — the color of milk

Salt Harvest

The workers move at dawn across the flats,
knee-deep in brine that holds the sky's reflection —
pink and colorless at once, a mirror
that forgets itself by noon.

always reaching for the edge of things,
pressing thumbs into coastlines

folded into the shape of a small bird,
the date worn soft as river-stone,
some Tuesday I will never visit.

The garden doesn't mind your forgetting.
Weeds push through the cracks in your plans,
some with flowers you didn't plant,
colors the seed packets promised
