“Home”

Home

Behold, it is home, /

Alone in the darkest sky. /

Womb of our desires.

“Winter rain”

Winter rain

I see you on leaves, /

lost tears of the winter rain. /

I see my rain, too.

“MoAnday”

MoAnday

It’s that dreaded day again,

The one that follows what should have been,

The day that’s missing an A,

They day that should be MoAnday.

I want to wrap myself in paper towels

To avoid the thunderous scowls,

The rain of terror, “aren’t you done yet!”

As I sit on the coffee pot and try to forget.

Oh, where art thou my pride?

Oh, this Moanday I can’t abide.

Oh, you’re hiding in the paper towels, too?

What, now, am I supposed to do?

“One”

One

Gathered over days, /

raindrops in a wheelbarrow, /

frozen into one.

“In the window”

In the window

Sunlight fades from sky. /

Evening rises in windows. /

House in silhouette.

“Door mat”

Door mat

Footprints on tree limbs, /

winter water reflection: /

world view up from down.

“Truth”

Truth

Digging up answers /

Is just like digging up bones. /

Results we’ll bury.

“Visions”

Visions

I’m a rodent, you see. /

Not a weatherman, who sees. /

See the difference?
