“Abstract”

Abstract

Clouds swirl arabesque, /

counting winds, flirting with light. /

Gossamer kisses.

A true patriot /

the night approaching.

Monday morning writing joke: “Writer named Maxwell”

There once was writer named Maxwell/

Who wrote only things factual /

Imagination, he said, /

Was not in his head. /

Then he was eaten by a Pterodactyl.

Pursuing pollen, /

“Perplexes”

Perplexes

The measure of time /

makes sense of nonsense, until /

it no longer does.

Writer named Flynn

There one was a writer named Flynn, /

Who had trouble knowing where to begin. /

In medias res, /

he heard was the place. /

but he didn’t know how to get in.
