Longer to Heat

Chip underneath

A blurred morning view through a kitchen window, with faint interior reflections overlapping gray outdoor shapes and a small red taillight near the right edge.

The Way You Do It Now

Let a familiar habit reveal a change

Three wooden stools beneath a kitchen counter, with slanting sunlight illuminating the seats, green cabinetry, and worn wooden floor.

He Had a Plan

Kinda

A man sits in a dim, blue-lit planetarium with folded directions protruding from his trouser pocket and his hand resting nearby. Beside him, a woman leans back beneath the projected stars.

Twenty-three

Monte Carlo, fourth of July

A maroon tie hangs unevenly over the back of a worn wooden chair, its wide end resting on the seat, in soft, cool light.

Not Cold Yet

…

Two soft pools of amber light overlap on a rough, dark surface, surrounded by blue-gray shadow.

The Last Tab

Some things stay open after the day moves on

A dim kitchen with dishes drying by the sink, cookware and cups left out on the counter, and late light falling across the room through a window.

And I don’t remember what

Two scuffed plastic chairs in a laundromat. A navy jacket lies on one seat beside a laundry bag; the other chair is empty. Washing machines line the wall behind them.

Begin With the Unfinished

Follow what keeps returning

An open laptop and mug sit on a kitchen table at dusk while light from an open refrigerator spills across the floor of the empty room.

Stayed Longer

…

Soft-focus view through a café window, with reflections of trees and golden morning light across an empty tabletop.
