they beat their breasts
and oily palms
profiting from all
the soft-boiled
foxes on the run
cerebral cortex bound
thinking they are free-willed

Upon Waking
“Upon Waking”
Slumber has its upsides
while the outside runs around
like a split fowlyard,
cacophonous

through the fog of dream
the sound of the gamble...

spiralling into shape
more black and grey
than white spills
from their eyes
light from their shining
hidden away

The Bird FeederSometimes,
not often enough,
I stop my morning routine
to watch the feeding drama breathe feathered flurries in and out,
on,
and under,
my side-yard bird feeder
Outside my kitchen windows
over this morning's sudsy sink,
looking across a twinkling white field
of early...

The Bird Brigade Has Been SummonedThe bird brigade has been summoned.
The empathy princess is down. Completely depleted of all energies, through ridiculously and blatantly giving too much of herself to others again.

A Change of SceneryI was reclining upon soft pillows, in my spacious window seat,
Savoring pretty views and sunshine, while I nibbled on a treat.
Alternately I read my novel, and gazed on the tranquil scene,
As one gazes at...

Remembering you in the corner of the grocery store

The River of Rimforever we talk
on the river of rim
cutting its banks
under
smothered stars and
a muted moon
it gushes through
fallen giants
whose dead limbs
gather homeless crows
waiting for the sun...
...for tomorrow
for
someone
kind
enough
to care for...

Dramatic Monologue
Another DreamSounds of morning, fluid undertones, yet cacophonous;
Rhythmic rustling of nearby trees form the baseline for tropical chaos.
Each added layer draws me further into distraction.
I hear the shadowy neighbors breaking their silence,
Attendant to their morning chores.
