and photographs by Michael Dylan Welch.

grey sky—

the dog’s water dish

iced over

tarnished silver

the only guest

eats in silence

my hand curves

       to fit your breast …

the windowsill, snowladen

 

 

 

 

first snow . . .

the children’s hangers

clatter in the closet

from dagosan:  

 

first snow –

an entire city

learning to drive

 

 

 

 

 

Thanksgiving snow storm –

a seatbelt protects each 

steaming pie
