Cartography

Just try, says the man.
Write something.

Take a step, says
this friend of mine.
Did Byrd quaver at exploring
that vast blank page?

Write,
says my friend

who sent me a journal.
Try every day.

Write something
even if it’s just,

April, 3rd:
Gone.

Steve Tomasko doesn’t fish as much, walk in the woods enough, or write as often as he should. When not at his day job, he does a little freelance nature observing and occasionally turns that into words. Once in a while people even pay him for it. He and his poet wife, Jeanie, whose poetry also graces these pages, live in Wisconsin.
