** in the absence of The Daily Post from WordPress, here’s your daily prompt: collect
on the first day of
on rainy mornings,

inject intent helplessly,
and still love inescapably

for all the data
for all the data
we collect from one

gravitational tug
from person to
person, something
we can keep
in our back pocket

charmingly, sitting
elbow-to-elbow,
lips shiny, tongues
wet, a silent
prayer to the
bartender – for
some kind of love

the things we

collect
gather dust as
consistently
as memories that
have lost
their way home
