puppet show is done
heap of string and painted wood
our entangled love
Month: September 2018
2126
open the fridge door
like magic the three cats
suddenly appear
2125
heavy mist morning
a smudged pencil sketch
of trees and houses
2124
green seas below
green hillsides ablaze
pumpkins and pumpkins
2123
trains and their whistles
so late at night— ghosts of ones
I should have taken
2122
2121
at a pet clinic
the construction worker
coos in baby talk
2120
orange globes summer
left behind on green hillsides
illuminates fall
2119
outside food markets
early morning they appear
legions of pumpkins
2118
at the big box store
long aisles of hdtvs
canned laughter erupts
2117

2116
the red light snares me
he shuffles to my window
panhandler roulette
2115
a cacophony
of crows and gulls falls silent
one wren’s aria
2114
skies of mackerel
almost october now
ribbons of red clouds
2113
like the cereal ad
leaves crunch snap, crackle, pop
autumn underfoot
2112
babysitting glitch
the grandson is horrified
WiFi not working
2111
a gentility
of deer in morning traffic
delight of children
2110
i gave her money
the girl in shredded jeans—-
her friends laughed and howled
2109
clean up the cat box
grind coffee and settle in
listening to crows
2108
how many times left
to see a hummingbird —
life’s a blur of light
