Lichen
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Lichen covered here and there. /
Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /
Decay is Time’s only care. /
Taking down the now — /
Leaving pieces that we share. /
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Leading onward, lichen dare.

Tracks
All travel alone /
Each in a box car of flesh /
Whistling goodbye.

Life
Life is sorrowful /
But fool that I truly am /
I love you, always.

Patterns
Weave and wonders abound: /
Circles, lines, colors, dreams. /
Clouds and water cups.

Mirror
Objects in mirror /
May be further from your reach /
Than the distance back.

Possum love
The night was fulsome. /
The opossum was hungry. /
Bird seed made a feast.

Home
Behold, it is home, /
Alone in the darkest sky. /
Womb of our desires.

In the window
Sunlight fades from sky. /
Evening rises in windows. /
House in silhouette.

Truth
Digging up answers /
Is just like digging up bones. /
Results we’ll bury.

Time
Now is elastic, /
Memory stretches then, /
Next shrinks away.
