Ghost Poetry
I wonder if it's ok to spin like thatI mean, I wonder if its natural to just keep going round and around it looks haunted

Trail Thoughts
I hike a lot, because it helps me kinda process things.. I guess I'm like a dog in that way, as well as many other ways in my life. Sometimes I have to take really long hikes to work things out, and today was one of those days... except I got snowed out, at about 3 miles in.. (I had packed for 16). But true to what I'd…
