time like a shadow
touches me in its passage
leaving so little
wisdom
She Told Him
she told him so often
take it easy on that curve
the wail of sirens
Wise to You Now
I’m wise to you now
your blind self importance
icicles melting
Snowbirds
beach gulls lament
those noisy, messy snowbirds
poor tippers, too
Skim Milk
panhandler shivers
as cold faces stream past
skim milk tonight
Turn
turn around
find the dreams you laid aside
make them live again
Abandoned
abandoned sand castle
the hermit crab claims
squatter’s rights
By the Hearth
he sits by the hearth
when mornings are chilly
hunger shall scold him
“The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold, therefore shall he beg in harvest and have nothing.” Proverbs 20:4
Envy
crow eyes the cat’s catch
clacks his beak hungrily
envy eats its own heart
Devices
newest devices
blessing or a curse?
unmapped minefield
