My 01/05/26 postcard is a split seed pod from a red hesperaloe, its thick, textured walls opening just enough to reveal the space where seeds once formed. The surface is weathered and richly colored. Against a soft sky, the pod feels deliberate and calm. What’s left is structure, patience, and the quiet suggestion of what will grow next.
