Longing

Sitting on a branch, /

the fat Robin of morning, /

longing for cat food.

Photo finish Friday: “Dismantling”

Dismantling

Dismantling the tree: /

ornaments, lights, memories. /

Packing the past. /

No music to comfort me. /

Watch what the sock monkey sees.

“Happy Eve”

Happy Eve

Happy Triskaidekaphobia Eve

To all who practice and believe.

Beware now that sidewalk crack

For you may break your mother’s back.

You’ve probably already broken her heart,

With your non replies or answers smart.

So she has now visited upon you

This Friday day over which to stew.

The Ides of March did Caesar in,

His conspirators waited until the middle to begin.

But this Friday and this thirteen

Stabs without antagonist seen.

There is always one and up to three

To torment you, to not let you be.

So, gird your loins and be on your guard,

Lest you be hoisted by your own petard.

Whelmed (dad joke, number 4)

Happy to see you. /

First, right amount of whelmed. Then, /

I was over it.
