Herbert, Herbert, Bertha.

If I give birth, and I have a boy, his middle name will be Bert.
I will tell him he is named Bert for three reasons.
His grandfather.
His great grandfather.
His great great aunt.

Three people full of love, determination, and creativity.

So there.

Thank goodness! We need it!

I'm not sure when I wrote it.

I found this in an old notebook while I was cleaning out boxes from under my bed.

I can't wait to
leave behind this
fresh rain
martini lonely

the right thing
to forget

not frenetic
crystal
invigorating

slowed to absolute zero
dirty dish water
poisoning

moving to
fresh rain soaked sage
only
going
to
drink water.....ever.
