Hands white with powder
caress soft, moist off-white dough

Numerous brown or gray or black with yellow, cycling aimlessly in our in ground pools
-
Beneath the branches, shadows darken
to me, children, you must harken
-
There is nothing sadder
than those cds
-
I used to play in graveyards as a child. Green grass beneath the sun.
-
Little Billy used to cry when Mommy was away Because he was afraid of the blue people.
-
On hot spring nights I'm pulled up, reeled in
-
I am your new broken-winged bird you want to save.
-
It’s only at night when the hours limp by
-
It’s summer and Warm sun beats down
-
This is their fierce circle. They range round the bloodstained snow.
-
Night is my time when the swollen sun sinks
-
Sleek dark hide Muscled sides
-
Sometimes I can only wonder is it adversity that kills us
-
It's night, my pen glides across paper
-
Dark days in my dusty studio my vision cobweb-choked,
-
Little flitting snowflakes blanket cold streets
-
The amber glare of the streetlamp reflected off the shiny police tape
-
When I was ten My father cut himself from us
-
Waiting was the hardest thing. Even with plush couches, pleasant music
-
Today I ran across the empty space In my address book
-
-
-
Here in my bedroom cocooned in the sheets
-
When the sky is gray
I let myself dance
-
When so much is congealed behind my painted smile
-
They walk on hard rough ground Broken with asphalt
-
My every heartbeat pumps the way of fang and claw
-
To linger, just for a moment
here where the poet wrote
-
Sitting on a park bench I watch my daughter swing.
-
In the deep green grass I close my eyes.
-
Above the pool, confetti sky Sparks dart left and right
-
One ordinary Monday the earth began to burn.
-
The soft tap of water as it whispers down to forest lake.
-
The smoke plumed through the gunshot holes
in the train window
