The fruit net

the fruit net

Limes held hostage
a snip, a tumbling
the math of a knife
the chiming of glass
cocktails now served.

Three Cans

Three aluminum men
Flat in the parking lot
Energy spent
Voices rough in the gravel
Silver eyes thrown to the sky

peeved pet rock

peeved pet rock

a pet rock embarrassed with paint
joking splatters of red, orange, and brown
two innocent dabs of turquoise
that's how it all started
so he tumbled away without a sound
and plotted the trip of a lifetime

Sidewalk Chalk

Chalk drawings on paved canvas
Abstract faces and
The classical Stick People
Names signed large
Smiling boldly at the coming rain
