Valour
If he were angrier, it would be better for them. She would like that more. Want him in a way she can’t anymore. They can’t be in the car anymore. Camp in an empty lot beside a football oval off …

On the Rise
All morning, the brothers work their father. They break him—he leaves his odd jobs undone and drives them to the tennis club. White cloud banks avalanche. Wasps cloud the drink taps. Summer heat rubbers the air treacly with the wattle …

Learn the Flowers
Entry for February 5th, 1798. Wordsworth walks to Stowey with Coleridge. She observes some trees putting up red shoots. And then, innocently, she signs off: Query—What trees are they?. In twelfth-grade philosophy class you visited a Buddhist temple, somewhere out …
