The street prays 
The wind howls for blood
The bed prays for sex
The tree prays for love to win 
In the next election

All Hallows Eve

leaves drift to the ground,
red and gold litter the street,
as ghouls come out to play,
one night a year;
All Hallows Eve!

Summer Break Dance

it was in the block
we jump and hop
 street was wet
water contest
we all jump hand prance
in this
SUMMER BREAK DANCE

Dance To the Stars

you can prance
take a parter hands
take that chance
do on the street
to the music beat
or on top of cars
DANCE TO THE STARS


Splash!

Rain
Pours down
My galoshes 
Become stuffed with feet
As I ready myself to 
Jump into all the mud puddles on my street

Always looking by the window 
With her eyes on the street below

Over the condense hope, starry night on the sky fleet

Countless ways
In route to wrong
Still more 
On road toward sin
One way
Ahead of lost
Trail track
To  
Christ within.

play a whistle
echo in the lonely streets
if anyone doesn't hear

street light shine

Dancing Beauty

My Beautiful One
skipped into sight 
in her bare feet
in the street,
Only I heard the beat
of her gracefully dancing feet

movement caught my eye
           a red fox, across the street
                it knew when to run

of the long day's city heat

I move faster than snowflakes
Running down the street sidewalk

As I Close the Shop At the End of the Day

The sun is setting
The afternoon is ending
The store is empty
A few cars parked on the street
I'm content, this is complete

Fog

Fog in the morning
Shrouding the telephone pole
Across the still street
The mysteries of the world
Shrouded in my ignorance
