sunflowers and skulls
remnants of a leader’s
infallibility
Month: February 2017
1027
leaves, twigs and birds
through closed curtains
morning’s shadow play
1026
false spring
kisses the sky clear
she’ll soon be gone
1025
mexico pays for wall
rents acapulco
to the chinese navy
1024
early spring cleaning
roombas on the prowl
taxis for cats
1023
lines were drawn
then wiped away–
a walk by the sea

1022
springs up enmasse
green blades scrape
at winter’s gray
1021
after spin cycle
bits of damp white pulp
a pulitzer gone
1020
enfolding my heart
she sings her baby
and me asleep
1019
bathing her face
in cobalt blue
netflixing in bed
1018
slitted eyes veiled
by potted kitty grass
stalk my bare feet
1017
he brings trinkets
she shapes the twig dome
magpies make a home
1016
tree trunks wrapped
overcoats of straw
last days of winter
1015
neighbors gather
speak a few words
for a drowned cat
1014
bright wings, preening
confessing one’s love
how we live on
1013
dam of winter
spring trickles through
first pools of sunlight
1012
pale patch of light
cat stretches herself
sun disappears again
1011r
a hoarfrost night
dark houses, empty streets
one window bears light
1010
walking at night
living rooms are aquariums
flickering blue light
1009
pretty little mouth
forked tongue lies
