  1. Excerpt from "A Poem for Roadkill" by River Elizabeth Hall, a WA state poet:

    "What if we pulled over,
    got close enough to feel the death-rattle
    shake the air against our skin?

    Offered regret for getting in the way
    with our roads, our tires, our glass?"

  2. Reread a poem this morning that I included in one of my transportation poetry round-ups (bikestylespokane.com/2024/02/1).

    “The News in Southwest Minnesota” by Marianne Murphy Zarzana

    "The victim, following the rules of the road, still unsafe, vulnerable.
    The intersection, unconsciously aiding and abetting fatal collisions."

  3. And through the wisps of winter’s crisp
    and frosted burden on these boughs,
    I see the sky a blank pale slate
    to paint with brightly lit displays
    of trees aglow with Yuletide cheer

    (Blank verse for a blank sky)
