crows laugh heckle
and steal straw
from the scarecrow
if only i had a brain
words hurt more
than sticks and stones
eating poetry with a
plastic fork
sophisticated
drinking breast milk
with a straw
wavered objects
seeds swell your spa-
cious womb
Form:
It's often felt, but never meant,
my misinterpreted intent.
When men of straw force me to follow,
them, from truth, down rabbit hollow.
Feathers or Straw
Miracle Man
8/6/2024
Peace of mind catnaps,
on the bed of soft feathers;
not anxiety.
Deception and Greed
the Pied Piper calls…
Rumpelstiltskin weaving straw,
promises of gold
Beyond a shadow of a doubt,
There’s much to be outraged about.
But what gets my craw,
The final, last straw:
Chaco Tacos have been phased out.
Sheep
Shoes
Shirt and swan.
Snake
Snail
Star and sun.
Straw
Stream
Steak and seat.
How many of these Ss words
would you like to eat?
Form:
Gracious patience, virtue keeping,
I find your treasure, magic, more.
Foolish girls seek pearls whilst sleeping;
I sit and spin my gold from straw.
Beige , wide brimmed straw hat.
And flirting, brown eyes beneath.
Flickers of my past.
Straw for hair
Charcoal nose
Awkward stare
Robotic pose
Emerald dreams
Carving my eyes
Red painted cheeks
Onyx cries
Wonderful at wind dancing
• He should've been back by now
• "Where did he go?" you ask
• "Downtown in the straw market," I replied
• "He tends to carry a flask"
Eenie, Meenie, Miny, Mo,
drums beat loud, a finger shows
Tigers prowl within our reach
—on tippytoes our fate impeached
(Dreamsleep: October, 2021)
Pitter Patter a
Matter of Splatter as
Spirits covet caress thin ice
"Straw sir"?
"Just a finger stir", is
Every bit as nice
A Year of Happy News!
I first saw her in the wheat fields,
as faint as a whisper,
as arresting as the sun,
making her way through the straw,
with the straw, she was one.
The fields have been swept clean
Round hay bales decorate the corners
Dry straw looking grass going dormant
Hawks search hoping for field mouse delicacy
Form:
Her nail invention was patent quick
She also had another trick
To paint toes with a bubble
Scrape feet with a scrubble
By using the smallest straw stick
Catfish wears his straw
hat
sits on the front porch
cussing
He feeds along
the bottom of the creek
gathering what he can
for supper
Sings his song.
IN THE AUTUMN COLD
in the autumn cold
while all the pinks are drooping
three white roses thrive
may i present
a straw filled bushel basket
with napping kitten
May I read to you Grandpa,
About a puppy that I saw,
With a big bone in his jaw
And a bandage on his paw?
He was sleeping in the straw.

Picture #3
eating spaghetti
a happy messy meal
meat sauce on my chin
others twist it onto a fork
a skill I never learned
i slurp it up like a straw turned into a snake
The inventive Swedish town of Gayle
Every winter holiday without fail,
makes a forty-three foot goat
Out of straw and an oat
It’s totally true, not a wild tale.
A fall ensemble
Autumn leaves, tiny pumpkins
Straw layered within
Bronze stars floating high above
Witch’s hat, dynamic piece
