Homegrown
Homegrown blue- and rasp- /
berries held in a ball cap: /
stains soak in the crown.

Raspberries
Collected at dusk, /
raspberries in an old cap, /
makeshift evening food.

Blueberry tithe
Pass the tattered cap /
this Sunday morning, collect /
your blueberry tithe.

Shadows and colors
Sunlight sits on cap /
Lying in quiet repose /
Waiting to turn heads.

Benched
Cane at a park bench. /
Borrowed book and found cap. /
Cold weather, warm words.

Death becomes you
Death becomes you, my dear.
Let me hold your hand so our selfie is clear.
Get my bare bones, they show me the best.
All that flesh and muscle — begone all the rest.
I’ll wear my cap. You wear your smile.
Don’t worry about missing teeth. It’s been a while.
