Why is my salary any business of yours
or yours any business of mine
Remember when we aired out our laundry
on strictly private clotheslines

Line after line of fresh diapers
A daily chore for years
Clotheslines held six dozen each day
Unless weather unclear
Two little ones not potty trained
Now grown and on their own
They hold up a lifeline of love
Since the soft nest they've flown

Memories that behind
glass windows /on the door sill,
those carved in the wall and
emerged with shadows
Memories that whimper in the way of the cemetery,
Memories abandoned on banks of streets,
Memories that stuck in footstep
Memories that laid on clotheslines
and also...
that slip from head accidentally
All these memories...
I am certain they will return;
As they never eaten from rust!

Free verse
comets strike terror
bombing nations rapid fire...
a slaughterhouse roasts
spiked towers pierce flesh…
drenched with blood of raw corpses
like clotheslines on trees
from skies tainted black
grounds crumble into thin rust…
world in drained sandbag
then, God says enough
angels swoop to tend remains…
guarding earth anew
.......... . ..

Abstract images dripping shadows
Through one's reveries--- cycles grasped
by an artist's palm, scraping the easel--
Mosaic of fallen birds caught within blended tints;
Acrylic pictures woven together,
Hung through clotheslines... soaring like love unrequited.
Within edges of a framework, paint coagulates,
Full of stale cigar smoke as wax droppings
break from many nights' forsaken candles.
