The Kite
Am I the only one to think
that a kite is such a sad thing?
Flimsy...frail...
never really free,
forever tied to a string
Yes, it can soar indeed,
so high, with the wind taking it places,
almost making it forget,
just enjoying...

On the eastern grade of the switcher yard, down at Medicine Hat
There’s a tendency for cars to roll toward the Dunmore hill

We heard the alert!
Big storm coming!
Batter down the hatches.
Tie down the loose stuff.
Board up the windows, sandbag the doors.
Remove any debris that may fly around.
We did it all, in plenty of time.
But, we looked...

Born In the Thermals
What is born in the thermals of a barren land
A spiral of destruction sublime
(I feel its power seeping into the ground)
Across the seas, it comes with fury
With no conscious thought, it gives to its wake

Unbound Words
The power of words is limitless,
Some like swords,
And others like feathers.
Every letter able to stab or sooth,
Strike with fear,
Or fill with hope.

Able to do wonders other than just be read.

Not As Pretty As She Seems
Just about to thaw
Then the numbness blankets me
I thought we finally hit our stride
But it’s me who can’t seem to see
I’m the plague
The infection that spreads
Rusting the perfect simplicity
Taking captives and counting heads
I have to...

With Winter, now the poacher's chain releases
while the hunters vane, their aptitude increases,

No thought of vestige pride, the eye beseeches

A Witch Flits and Twists Through the Indigo Mist
A well-worn witch flits and twists through the indigo mist.
Gloating in genius, I look at my well-read list.
Bats shaken out of their sleep, come out to dive bomb.
