Virginia Palms



Breezewood, that Nexus of the east

behind us now,

its everlight finally faded from the sky.

Dimmed roads lead us


back to the land of the American Origin Story,

suffering,  starvation

 

and Virginia palms.

 

Unexpected, undaunted in this climate; 

those hardy trees that managed to survive the transplant


and now the damned things are everywhere.

Someone Somewhere

My very own ghost story at the battle site of Fredericksburg, VA, where we were followed by a mysterious pipe smoke smell lingering near the memorial on Hanover Street, with no one around smoking a pipe; i read later than Martha Stephens was a scandalous character whose house still stands by the memorial, who was known for smoking a pipe.
