  • Wired Fence

    I really thought I could do it.
    They made it look so easy.
    The 5'10" giant with the blue soccer jersey
    The 5'8" goalie with the strong jump.
    Me. Their short horizontally fast striker. Bench warmer. Which ever.
  • Numbered Haiku

    Feeling like a cute tired pigeon
    Resting in a fruit bowl.
    Kinda vibing 
    It be fun.
    Not to fly; but sleep
    Feel like a cucumber-
    Cool.
    Shmerrrp.
    Pigeon eat cucumber. Strange dreams.

     
  • Jelly and Marshmellows

    At 1:23 each week exactly
    Robinson Moroson Georgous Mcclackly
    Strides to the store to buy a few things,
    And when he leaves the bag he swings

    Roninson’s beard is salt peper gray
    His eyes are a brown and and blue.
  • Silver Rings

    I'm wide awake with little pride
    I'd rather be asleep.
    an yet the voices in my head
    for hours had to peep.
    They told me stories so intruiging
    doubts from in my heart,
    they whispered reassuring words

Loves

  • Roses

    It ended with roses.

    I process the funeral in snatches.

    Glimpses, even.

    I see my family spilling out into the cemetery

    Long-lost cousins twice-removed,

    Great granduncles,

  • Where I’m From

    I am from coffee beans,  

    from bitter brews and cracked porcelain mugs.  

    I am from the steamed soy eggs,  

    the scent that clings to mornings  

    like an old, Chinese dwelling.

  • Poetry

    Snapple

    There’s a Snapple on the general store roof.

    There’s been one there for quite a while. About three years.

    Must be nasty by now.

     

  • Childhood

    I remember when a phone wasn't important to me

    When all I wanted to do was play outside in the grass

    Watch as the clouds wisped by in the sky
