Tin man
Tin man lost his head. /
Gave his heart to Dorothy, /
who never came back.

One of these days
Oh tree, my tree,
Please hide me.
I want to stay
Away today.
I don’t want work
Nor stupid jerks
To come my way.
I want to be
By my little tree
And fill my my days
With poetry.
Oh tree, little tree
Stand by me.
Please, please
Hide me.

Looking
Looking backward /
No one remembers the rain /
Only the hammers.

Inner seeds
Cancer is Winter: /
Hard on the outer shell /
Opens inner seeds.

Snow
Cat in the snow, /
under a truck that won’t go. /
Yet, noises still flow.

Turning
Winter sky reflects /
in glass and in clouds: wonder, /
pain, weather, and blue.

Morning
Snow and yellow sun /
Hurl white into the morning. /
Touched by morning blue.

Shapes
Fog enters the night, /
swirls around with damp delight, /
obscures the cold light.

Glass sun
The molten glass sun /
Oozes fire along day’s edge. /
Cooling into night.

Whispers
Beneath my tired cane, /
the floor whispers its beauty /
to the soles passing.
