What Kids Did
Compared with us, the kids today
Too little play and too much weigh.
Alone indoors they snack and sit
And buttons hit, while we stayed fit.
We'd quickly chores and homework do,
Then dash through doors to fun pursue,
To basketballs...

Watching From a Skiff On the Ohio River
Herons fragment the mist,
appear and disappear while remaining motionless.
The skiff rocks as a coal barge trundles past.

Drunk Behind the Wheel
You have a choice
To fall prey to that demonic disease
And stay victim held captive
Where it keeps you with ease
You have a choice

And exist under asphyxiation from
High powered inanimate pollution
