Windswept and sight
Down the phone lines to
Infinity- they say-
Which
Considering our road and direction
Might be
Bartlesville a place
Misheard into another language I know it
Both the place and the
Language in a patchwork of
Supper and
Relatives
Filling station and
Random nouns a
Blanket that smells of
Grandma Mae a
Story about
Grand Lake the
Word for a specific turtle the
Feel of sandals in
Creek mud
