If you choose to make a pitch.
By bus or car you make the trip,
You've trained yourself just not to slip.
The agents sit; a motley crew,
A few may even look at you.
To them it's just the same old hat,
To find some...

Than tap shoes, multiplied?
Tapping feet exude more joy
Than most things can provide.

when tones thought so comfortable to the one in pain
flood the room---
these notes, tunes, rhythms bring one to the special places
the minute seconds of one’s life
where one wishes it would last forever &

He moves down the row
driving a spike into their heads.
Tap tap - double taps
one tap would have done.
I think he enjoys it.
maybe his wife henpecks him.

I stare at the frog allotted to me;
small, green,
wide grinning mouth.
It looks like a cartoon drawing
as it sits motionless between...
