Without My Jacket

May 22, 2018 / Brandon M. Humphreys / Leave a comment

I went out into the world today without my jacket. I went out into the blinding sun and I felt the warm spring air.   The winter has been long and dark and cold and gray. My jacket kept me warm inside, and kept the coldness out. My jacket was an armor made of thick … Continue reading Without My Jacket

They seemed to whistle while they worked, But the notes just wafted into the night, not nearly … Continue reading Out There Was America

Giant Moon

May 22, 2018May 22, 2018 / Brandon M. Humphreys / Leave a comment

The giant moon lit up the night. The early June air cool and crisp. We drove my mother's car through the woods Up Forker road to the place she was staying. The Eagles serenaded us through the static of the radio and We kissed for the first time, bathed in moonlight. Her smell, exotic and unknown and wonderful. … Continue reading Giant Moon
