Long shadows, dead veins, /

Reading the future.

Photo finish Friday: “Unspoken”

Unspoken

Rumbling and ugly, /

hot with unspoken hate, sky /

gray with tattered hope.

Crossing and searching, /

Clouds swirl arabesque, /

counting winds, flirting with light. /

Gossamer kisses.

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, /

Icarus could have been a bee, /

cindered by desire.
