The days
Bars stand vertical /
Days scratched straight, then strike at four /
The wall bares my time.

The sky
Morning sky gives way /
to the sun’s rising thrust and /
fall leaf canopy.

Color the sky
Clouds color the sky /
Swirling high above the ground /
Sun rides the dark wires.

The night
Horizon flares red /
Behind clouds smudged dark with night. /
Car travels film noir.

Man stalks the monster /
An amphibious reader /
Halloween stories.

There once was an actor of note,
Who thought he was so good he could float.
Upon the stage he did try
To levitate way up high,
And soon he was smaller than a mote.
