the roar of water falling
providing altered states.
with senses filling
and flowing thoughtlessly
within the river — with Sophia
— George Lottermoser
by Mark Twain (1835-1910)
Now when I had mastered the language of this water and had come to know every trifling feature that bordered the great river as familiarly as I knew the letters of the alphabet, I had made a valuable acquisition. But I had lost something, too. I had lost something which could never be restored to me while I lived. All the grace, the beauty, the poetry had gone out of the majestic river!

After mowing the weeds,
while sitting with a cup of coffee,
I see this Japanese Beetle walking along my shirt.
The claws made it difficult to pull off the fabric.
With a little research I discover they’re known as “pests.”

Do we name the flowers after women?
or
Do we name little girls after flowers?
Which came first?
The flower or the little girl
blooming in the summer sun…
