Can I please have a tiny bit of peace? She asked if he had yet signed the lease. He was exhausted from an eight-hour day. She wanted him to work;...

Labor Ye Til the Storm
What nights speak thee mine That the sun warms the atmosphere of our togetherness That your beauty seduces me and your warm cultured manner invites my battered soul What words of concernment speaks the woman The Red Tornado has been in control Damnest thee that nature hast consumed what was What is to be is Of these consumed men that that nature hast take Rd control. Good times and bad this ground...

I woke up at 6 But it really was 5; Now it’s 5 But it really is 4. Every time that we change All the clocks, I know I’ve Been confused By this twice-a-year chore. It was dark when I woke; Now it’s still very light And might be When I’m ready for bed. Yet I follow the rules Though I know that I might Never get this All...

Another Springtime Chore
Another Springtime Chore By Franklin Price 03/08/2022 I wrote of springtime yesterday Of the flowers, birds and bees And of the leaves and blossoms On the bushes and the trees Of the gardening and raking That is needed out of doors Not the things, I may be buying At the Lowes and Walmart stores This morning when I woke up And my bare feet hit the...

Self Supression
Self-suppression Of feasting and drinking beyond the road. Conflicts and dissonance over the load Trembling in the face of the tide, of youth age Thoughts altogether are the sign of the rage Prisoner of desire in a locked cage. What if one claims to be a sage? Fails among the average, but blurry beige It's the act of dedicating oneself to a...

Firewood
Overgrowths of arm-post life Lift upward as my steam-breath Vanishes thinly into the sky Cool sweat drips deliberately As the stacks grow larger And the sawdust smells and sticks The wagon-load will wallow obediently As the frost bites cleanly Through the still winter dusk Ash white smoke curls softly From the cut-stone chimney Where a portrait of simplicity Sleeps eternally in my mind ...

Baby's First Chore
Mom and baby, in the rain; Arms hold babe and dog on chain. No umbrella – getting wet; Not a one appears to fret. Walk to corner – garbage pail Plus a box to drop the mail. Mama hands her tot a bag, Small enough for babe to snag. Then I realize what’s inside – Poo their doggie has supplied. Baby holds it gingerly Then...
