Snail Heaven I just want to move slowly through the day and maybe night when they turn the sprinklers on. I yearn for clouds to manifest in summer’s cerulean unfortunately clear sky. Heaven is a patch of grass nobody dares to walk across because the dogs got there first. I’d like my days to mirror each other into infinitude. Too much to ask, to ooze smoothly along a path I make up as I go? Penelope Moffet Penelope Moffet is a Southern California poet whose most recent chapbook is It Isn't That They Mean to Kill You (Arroyo Seco Press, 2018). The drawing, Snail Heaven, was created as part of the 2020 Postcard Poetry (PoPo) festival, and the first draft of the poem was then written on the back of the card.
