My cat
Even as the world grows /
odd, my old cat still purrs and /
demands his dinner.

The Old Man
There was an old man who lived in a sign. /
His wife wouldn’t join him because she wouldn’t cosine. /
Now she lives adjacent to an empty hypotenuse. /
Her life a tangent somewhat on the loose.

Old parchment
Fall leaves touch sidewalk, /
plucked from a season’s fancy, /
curled as old parchment.

Old coat
Time is an old coat /
worn thin in the pockets /
clutched for its memories.

Tumbling
Old cat and old thoughts /
arrayed on the windy lawn, /
with old leaves, tumbling.
