On Human Responsibility In a Chaotic World

I hear it,
Like the many lights flashing
 just to keep me going.
Contrary to  the damp twisted sheets 
as my anchor to 
the warm drip.

On my invisible brow 
I have been spat 
 
And I am not counting

Now,
Theres always an echo of an army
poised in the dark
between finishing and pointlessness
Sometimes gumming Orchid petals and clicking wooden heels
over and over.

For the first time today I remembered there was something outside 
of me. 
I heard a resonating moan.
Nothing like air nor flesh 
but many strong puzzle pieces 
spinnging and catching 
to simply and suprisingly 
keep going
 forward.

Because Bread Making Is Serious Business

My short name, my lucid green day
My South Dakota doll accent, my life-jacket
My worn through the knee blue jeans

A red ant 
struggles 
between the last two toes.

Kitchen Check

Clipped close
(mine)
Speculation lingers on 
Cautious shoulders,
Hooped ankles.

The clean sky
The dirty earth
And all the 
bird scraps 
in between.

We Stopped Here

We used to sit here,
right in this very spot
so that he was facing the window.

We discussed night 
without even a thought of darkness
We imagined Bonnie, our ship
my wardrobe, a pet.

Sometimes we would spread ourselves weak
in comfort
and onto fabrics,
and sometimes I was that deep
black-purple tree
larger than the stone buildings. 

How long will this be here
in this spot? I wondered.

Now it hurts to lay like this 
not needing toes and not yet tired.
