hi chris

I am like an
animal converging
conversing
on a cold trail
scented
with warm breath
and smoke

kelly

JD Salinger
his unseen work
locked behind the thick steel door of a safe,
inside an isolated house in a remote woods,
creations that could be some of the greatest
works of literature
born only on his passing

one weeks silence
broken like fragile
windowpanes
condensation in the brutal
cold

who gets your soul
when the click
of the shutter
turns into
1's and 0's

last summer
I sat and ate hotdogs
feeling uncomfortable
swatting mosquitoes
and making conversation

sunday evening
unlike the morning
or the night before
is still
yet looming
in the despair of what
hasn't
become complete

hi jon

Einstein
as a child
connected with the universe
of knowledge
did his parent
raise
a curious genius

hey ramon

movement
without effort
creating sounds
without effort
vision being
simple what
we see

hi robert

why this day
seemed lost
without the usual focus
on our nations
beautiful and ugly past
i do not know
but can only blame
myself

camaron

confused when being lead
on a spiritual
quests
to the Mall
she became
engrossed and
moved by the way
the tale was spun

hey janine

the car radio
creates a vivid picture
of human suffering
while I drive
and feel sad
unable with need
to help

hi gayla

2001
2010
walking
on what seems like
another planet
frozen and glacial
complete with 1970's decor

hi nancy

mist glows over
pink airy clouds
streaming
princess dreams
while adults drink coffee
and talk
about school

a blue hue
with little detail
early morning reports
of murders
and sub zero
temperatures

not so fresh
memory
is a peaceful refuge
to understanding
like the
inhale and exhale
of breath

hey nora

seize the moment
or slowly let it
fall into place
by discarding
the burdens
of imposed
choice

hello nickolas

I come and go
on these frigid days
with little effect
on others lives
as if intentions
becoming frozen solid
and never being
