Sebring: Alligators and Marshmallows

Sebring: long ago humid heat leaches will blue lakes and brown swamps “Caution Alligators” transformative sunsets clockwork storms and lightning balls cactus spine sabotage fire ants flip flops alligators eat marshmallows from a stick trees costumed in air plants and Spanish moss Grand Prix dreams beaches buried deep in shells green waters beckon Jays riding my head garden shed baby squirrels bouncing people I've loved O, the people I've loved. 07/23/2015
