“Give ‘em”

Extended magazine of inaction.

Give ‘em.

Give ’em a gun; give ’em a Bible. /

Watch as they turn and go tribal. /

“An Act of God,” is their refrain /

as the children cry out in pain.

“Light gone”

Light gone

Light through your window, /
early morning, but you’re gone. /
No shadow, sun alone.

“Grasp”

Grasp

Palm to the blue sky, /

I grasp the day as clouds sail /

across my fingers.
