Nine years ago
Eggs, age were hidden /
Nine years past, when both were young. /
Spring hides without end.

Possum handling
Possum in my hands /
Baby in the morning sun /
Embracing nature.

By the roadside
Scraped, by the roadside, /
Olde English brown malt liquor. /
Unopened Spring thirst.

Evening sun
Descending daylight. /
Dressed in gray, red, and orange, /
Homes retire to night.

Demon
Demon at my feet /
Rests in peanut butter /
Anticipation.

That delusion
Age is a mirror /
Reflecting a passing thought /
Breath fogs the photons.

Grip
What has died reaches /
into what has yet to live. /
Holding and leaving.

Resistance is futile
Yes, I am a stray. /
Feeding me is encouraged. /
Petting discouraged.

What will we be?
Will the stream live or /
Be a memory dump of things /
When we are gone?
