Vernon Wade is a poet, author and freelancer. He has been published in The Gorge Literary Journal, Dualsport Rider Magazine, Hack’d Magazine, The Sidecarist, ROB Magazine and The Hood River News.
The world fills him with wonder. When he looks at the sky he is lifted into flights of fancy, when he stares at the earth he is drawn beneath its surface. He is delighted to find the macrocosm and the microcosm equally mesmerizing.
7/13/26 O’dark-thirty. Stars are out and it is dark. There are noises behind me as I squat at the latrine. I flip on a flashlight and find myself surrounded by horses, blinking in the glare.
Back to bed to sleep until dawn. Left-over rhubarb cobbler for breakfast.
Bumbled around all morning getting packed. Pulled out around eleven, home by four.
