Phillip Knight Scott is the author of the best-selling The Alien in the Backseat, a humorous buddy road-trip novel featuring one human and one persnickety alien with the Earth’s very future along for the ride.

Phillip lives with his wife and five-year-old son in North Carolina and spent six years working in New York City … enough to know that someone asleep by 10 every night wasn’t made for the City that Never Sleeps. He enjoys spending time with family, watching Tar Heels sports, and watching classic Doctor Who.

Waking up

She can pierce the sky
with a sideways glance — leaves
scatter in her eyes & with a gust
I taste a coconut lime-
freckled shoulder
painted for Autumn.

Then with a smile
she reminds the sun to hang
a medal on the morning
& I memorize the way the light
sprinkles delight
on her cheek as I kiss
her good morning.

At last she’s ready
to engrave her initials on the day
& I’ll carve a spot with her
careful to leave plent
