The Light Within Earshot at the Gas Station Snack Bar
Our oldest light goes by the name cosmic
microwave background radiation—
CMB for short. She's everywhere:
fluorescent birdsong of modern offices,
hum of corner store ice cream cases.
Have you heard of her? This gal was born
screaming into freedom from the expansion
of a bang...

When I Left a Snack For SantaA silk top I asked Santa Claus for!
How did Mr. Claus handle that chore?
On that beautiful silk
I found stains from spilled milk.
Milk and cookies for Santa? No MORE!

Snack AttackSNACK ATTACK
I grabbed the sealed snack that looked good
and thought it was some other food.
Infant of my mind.
A test for the blind.
My buds scream “No Good!”
*Through clear plastic looked like skittles. It was M&M’s. Both are good
but when you are not expecting a certain taste,...

Grandmas SnackGrandmas Snack
Grandmas long hair, nearly touching the ground
It's where my siblings gathered around
She'd give us hugs, hugs so tight
We would welcome them with great delight
On the porch we would sit
It was hard to be patient, I would admit
Do you want a banana, we would say...

Division is the rule, and fools will make our way,
our fear has brought it down on a world going wrong.
I'll still love you in Spring,...
