  • Semaphore-Jimmi Campkin

  • Our Religion

    Originally posted on Quiet Corner: The hard yet simple naked truth is that we both wake up next to strangers, embraced by foreign arms when things get too heavy. We laughed driving down the road when a skittish rabbit is confused with which way to bounce just before I jerk the wheel to the left… Read more

  • Him, Me, and the Woods
