leaving so little

the wail of sirens

I’m wise to you now
your blind self importance
icicles melting

those noisy, messy snowbirds
poor tippers, too

find the dreams you laid aside
make them live again

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

blessing or a curse?
unmapped minefield
