“The Old Man”

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.

Popcorn balls

Singed fingertips shape /

Photo finish Friday “Petals”

Petals

Dead petals touch ground, /

plucked from a moment’s fancy, /

soft as kind thoughts of you.
