Eleven stories
Eleven stories high /
Clouds become floating neighbors /
Winking through the slats.

Love
Remind me why: love, /
I carry as the morning: /
wide, heavy, weightless.

Reflections
Reflections and runs. /
Descending winter sun plays /
off windows and clouds.

Orb
Light gathered and filled /
Filtered through the entered orb /
Wave and particle.

Dismantling
Dismantling the tree: /
ornaments, lights, memories. /
Packing the past. /
No music to comfort me. /
Watch what the sock monkey sees.

Become
When I think of you /
today will always become /
the past.

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.

Dreams
Good night, Earth. /
I search with headlights /
for truthful dreams.

Shadows
Darkness and shadows /
Descending day raises night. /
Images drift free.

Shelter
Build walls to shelter /
To share moments together /
Not divide the heart.
