Brian’s collected pieces, volume by volume.
I lay my cards down on the table. There’s no need for me to hold them close. I’m tired and no amount of secrecy will conceal my weary heart. There was no standing still once I learned to run. I was consumed by a future so certain to come. It was a feminine spirit blowing across Lake Superior who told me to go home, and to become rooted.
