At Least One Screw Loose

         George was a prankster, at least one screw loose
         Peed in a bottle, tagged it orange juice
             His mom drank it all down
   

At Least One Giant Ground Sloth Is Alive Again

I found it curled in the shadow
of what used to be a hospital.
A slow hunch of fur,
the color of old bark—like the forest
had tried to grow itself a question.

It didn’t look surprised to see me.
Just blinked, as if measuring
whether I was worth the glance.

I sat cross-legged beside it,
tore foil from a protein bar—
offered the whole

Chasing After You

Ordinary days, just like before,
No one knows the feeling of being ignored.
It's always that one who makes the heart beat fast,
In every way, giving the heart a blast.

That someone is too far from reality,
The impossible hits differently.
Too good to be true to notice,
Even in the smallest way, there's no space.

It’s always you that gives a

at least this is something

The mirror was irritatingly sparkly today
Gave me a saucy wink, showing her arrogance
I hate being in the bathroom in the morning
For this very reason

Two pony dogs have to be stepped over in the hallway
One is not moving
The other one will rear up in between my legs
Not intending to trip me, but one day I will

AT LEAST HE TRIES

He’s been around a long, long time
(Put another way, he’s old)
By now he thinks he knows it all,
He does not if truth be told.

He likes to think he’s a poet
And he’s scribbling all the time.
But often the syllables are wrong
And it doesn’t even rhyme.

He tries to be hilarious
But his humour’s pretty grim.
And most of the

the least I can do

one month old baby dies from SIDS
two-year-old does not survive cancer.
three-year-old expires from pneumonia
four-year-old is killed in a tractor accident.
At seventy-two I wonder….
why them?
Why not me?
It makes me want to enjoy every minute that I can
in honor of the ones who did not get anywhere near 72.
It seems like the least I can do, I

Whilst beasts least bother to boast

What if man’s made to run a race with deer,
Or with Chita a sprint he were to face,
That, man’s no match appears mighty clear, 
Beasts would beat with half of their highest pace.
Take any seal, a whale, or a dolphin,
And let an Olympic swimmer compete, 
E’en one with gold medal can’t hope to win,
What ants

Tapestry: My Least Favorite Word in Poetry

Dear poet, please come get your tapestry,
Tacked across the window—it hangs askew.
My cat’s convinced it’s hers to claw, you see.

The reds all clash—they’re far from harmony,
But hey, it fills the space and hides the view.
Dear poet, please come get your tapestry,

Its threadbare pattern does not speak to me;
Much too common, and maybe that’s your clue—
My

AT LEAST I LOOK COOL

AT LEAST I LOOK COOL

   Standing strong
Still determined
After so much challenges that hit not long
I'm still okay and bold like I just started.

   After fall, at least I look cool
The commitment and bravery is still there
All I care is getting pass barriers like defenders to score a goal
Like Messi, the techniques

How Frank Sinatra Saved My Life - Or At Least Got Me Kicked Out Of The Hospital

Up and down, up and down, up and down
I don’t know if I have any more energy for
Up and down
If the line would flatten 
I could finally rest

A masked woman wearing scrubs
Fights my inclination for slumber
But, sleep equals peace
My lungs and head droop
Alarms blare
I hear mumbled words 
Something about rousing my oxygen levels

I breathe the

LOVES THE LEAST OF ME-

Come focused 
Give unto me
Your undivided love
Fathom I
Who am I
Whose am I
Should I just be so
I shall never let you go
I know you love me

You love me so 
Come focused 
Give unto me
Your undivided love
Fathom I
Who am I

Should I just be so
I shall never let you go

Do You Know At Least Some of the Answers

Why is my body lop-sided?
Notice when I put on my socks
Never a problem with my left foot
With my right foot my muscles lock

Why are some right handed
While others more adept with their left?
Ever try writing left handed
A scrawl barely readable at best

Why does the hair on a female's face
Take so much longer to grow?
Imagine if

At Least My Thoughts Are Running Across This Paper

At least my thoughts are running across the remains of this paper

Laboring through another round of words circling inside my mind
I find, I need to take my time with writing chimes and 
poetry lines
for if I stumble across a sentence to short or to long
I might turn it around; to jingle it with a song
Damn,

At Least I Feel Pain

Hurt but not broken,
Words worth but not spoken,
An urge to just feel, anything that’s real, 
The sting of a razor was all that would save her.
