Danse Macabre
I stood stone still /
when the giant skeleton /
asked me to dance.

Twilight
Cottage at twilight: /
clouds crown its roof, jogger’s footfalls /
speak against its walls.

Old cat
The old, stray cat sleeps
on the dry September grass.
Brittle leaves and dreams.

Breathe
September evening /
breathes in the day’s last embers, /
breathes out its lost dreams
