curtains in ribbons
lets in more sunlight
cat reassures me
2163
wind-farm propellers
spinning in the storm— forty
acres flying south
2162
waiting for the gas
she argues with her surgeon
about her copay
2161
please winter over
I’ll be first to hear you sing
when spring begins
2160
clutching her tickets
my aunt knows she is the next
billionairess
2159
no more serenades
buskers in bushes pack up
twee little fiddles
2158
the morning after
I’m not a new billionaire
cat says no big deal
2157r
best show for two bucks
buy a mega chance— crumple
and toss it to cats
2156
grandson is a storm
bellowing exuberance
cats have disappeared
2155
death has its upside
no worries of outliving
your retirement
2154
in a splash
frog becomes water
water becomes frog

all spring you sing
in my backyard— and I don’t
even know your name

a jar of old keys
what houses, what rooms, whose heart
did they once unlock

evergreen forest
curtains of morning fog rise
to let in the light
