feeling crapsy
 
 

i was
feeling crapsy,
so started up my pen
and drove syllabically back
to me.

*********************************

Winding
Stark dark highway
High beams Owl screams and swoops
Racing tires to spotlighted mice,
Doomed twice.

**********************************

Wiping
Thick desert dust
Off a long stored relic,
I learn that flotsam and jetsam
Are trash.

**********************************

Outside,
Summer blossoms
On a blazing sidewalk,
Committing trees and we alike
To Fall.

Enclosed
air conditioned
to sweat-free breezy ease,
watching heat-treated tourists wilt
Outside.

Mating

Lola
fair fur, blue eyes,
To Luke a Tonkinese
Displays the ways of the Siamese,
Then purrs.

Mink fur,
Sable brown face -
Feline grace sacrificed
to urgency and pheromones,
Luke cries
