After grandpa died, I asked if she was lonely.
I thought she was being brave when she said 'no'.
but I have seen her eighty-seven year old bones go for walks in the woods
or make sugar-free cookies.

She is a bird without a cage.
She makes solitude look romantic.
On Women is a collection of small verses on women that I know, observed, or have heard about. The collection is to be read together, though it is posted as individual pieces.
