Winter’s cold underworld. /
Spring’s ghost whispers hope.

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

Shadow
Shadow has no grip, /
but can hold you anyway, /
and never release.

Bending
Bending the daylight, /
Shaping the shadows, the bridge /
Spans more than water.

Summer tastes
Summer tomatoes /
nurtured by rain and sunshine, /
turn time into taste.

Imagine, if you will…
Imagine, if you will,
A people so shrill,
They scream for their rights,
But are ready to kill.
Responsibility — not theirs
And they have no cares,
Except to fight,
When asked to community share.
To wear a simple mask
Is an onerous task,
And with all their might,
Many refused to get vaxxed.
They have their excuses
Or claim it’s all ruses.
It’s all government oversight
Or power abuses.
The hospitals are clogged,
And the cases are logged,
“Unvaccinated flight”
Leaves healthcare workers agog.
Now children are dying,
But GOP politicians are crying.
They say their dead right
To stop even trying.
Go get some invermectin,
Or your grandma’s canning pectin.
Take it tonight to fight
Left-wing insurrection.
It will rid you of parasites
And any sense of the real right,
Like civil responsibility,
To all lives: one and many.

Know-where
Nowhere, you know me /
Alone in your majesty. /
Find you and you me.

Nectar
Nectar-hunting bee /
Cares not a bit about me. /
I am unworthy.
