before hardwood floor bouncing
because of the net

volleyball: contacts and connects
do not drop.
always look up.

birds with no wings.
legs made of springs.

shields and walls,
no time to fall.

jumps up high

trust and threat
eyes waiting to set

You trod

upon

fair nor 
dark haired
son to

midair

I dropped

fade like an old bruise

She knew her team wouldn’t
Let...

Desert dune damage, feet wrapped in gauze,
To sue, the lawyer thought he had cause,
Yet the relevant section,
Escaped his detection,
--There was no sandy clause....

ANTS HOG GLEN
ANTS HOG GLEN

Fiery red burns
Autumn orange
Army ants learn
How to hog Glen
High winged pigs
Fly blue in tune
Suctioning mouths
Pulling helium 
Balloons

Premium Member Summer Days
Singing birds and laughing children
Summer sounds seep into our senses

Friends, family and neighbors socialize
Backyard shaded lounging chairs
children playing nearby

Summertime sunshine and outdoor adventure
Fishing at dawn...

A cacophony of cheers
Sand sprays like fireworks
From feet, hands, ball, hair.
Four women, two-a-side,
In a battle for the ages.

A motion of fluidity and a
Knowledge brought forth
From...

You kick me I move;
To the direction

Harder you kick

Yet under your feet;
Made of hide 
Of unfortunate sheep,

To my naked body

Thoughts of
Freezing

The Balls: A Parody of Poe's The Bells

Hear the bouncing of the balls--
Basketballs!
What a sound of merriment they cause when each ball falls!
How they echo, echo, echo,
Inside the gymnasium walls,
Arriving at a...
