home unintended things,
like sand
and salt
water
from the beach.
soggy shoes.
sandwiches half eaten
tossed
in the back seat.
bottles of warm water
in the trunk.
wet towels,
torn beach chairs.
a bag of saltwater taffy
from the boardwalk.
newspapers and magazines.
a box of plump
tomatoes from the roadside
stand,
and two
fat peaches that i eat
as i drive.
sunburned, i bring home
more than i left with.
not counting
money.
