Flash Dance

Just yesterday
stealing past postcard vendors
towards rights unknown
towards tomorrow:
the return of romance
but today the war
and it seems
a dog has taken itself
considerably away
into hills or gin
whilest time held me
oh, daddy
I should have been a pair of silent claws
for I sang in my chains like the seas
yearn.

Trifecta

My house.
My bed.
My dogs.
My toilet.
My closet.
My hand towels.
My cutlery.
My computer.
My paint schemes.
My masonry.
My faucet.
My pots and pans.
My backyard.
My walnut tree.
My retaining wall.
My bird feeders.
My metal desk.
My door bell.
My glazed window panes.
My recessed lights.
My neighbors.
My hardwork.
My life.

I hope you are enjoying it.
