an eagle …

flew across the sun and cast its
shadow beachward 
like a dark arrow … loosened
I watched it soar and disappear into the

Warmth seeping through knots in her gnarled hands and sShe sits on a paisley chair in front of the East window
welling in her stiff knees

Popping off

...This was last Christmas - 39 days ago - doesn’t that seem like ancient history? 

We were in Lisa’s (parent’s) 50th floor flat, in Manhattan. It was mid-morning, we’d done the present thing, and it...

His noctambulous proclivity
He calls it, a force of habit
Something automatic
Tonight is especially morbid
Atrabilious even

they sing of the water

bowels of death, itself
it swept along the edge of
the darkened forest
licking the evergreens with
its cyanotic tong...

The Watcher

...Watcher ...
