Mind Ferrets

...Insomnia- the madman napping in the attic.
Alarm clock set for a second past the ogre's hour...
His greasy head resting on a burlap bag. 
Filling with ferrets and rats-firecrackers for teeth.

Flash-Back: a Haunting

...I see an Army combat friend who stands 
alone in dim-lit shadows of a street-lamp's
yellow glow. A shared piece of history has now
arrived to tweak and trick my troubled mind.
I gaze through dust...

A Thinning Light

...A pair of new shoes in the thrift store,
the old shoes would shuffle away
from them if they could.

A ragged man struggles 
carrying a large plasma screen
in outstretched arms.

the cattle don’t complain.

Fearlessly making every noise we can,

Burlap and Satin

...Needle by needle
The tunes for the fiddle
Press by press
The pink caress
