greatness revealed in
the sound of splinters, words that
pierce my jealous eyes.

Delayed gratification
Let delight ripen
into a sweet juicy pear
True joy takes patience.
You look great
Bright lipstick fools them
into thinking I’m well. No
“How do you feel?”
In sleep
Her breath sounds like the
whistle of distant trains bound
for lands beyond dreams.
February thaw
Snow releases its
grip as small drops melt merge run
in noisy trickles.
Misty mountain hop
Dawn the breath of a
new day paused when night exhales
sunrise dimmed by fog.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
He had a dream but
his murder was our nightmare.
It’s time to wake up.
Face waxing
In a misguided
effort I peeled off half my
face and left the hair.
Can’t sleep – 2 am
Wind chimes jangle in
the breeze. Nature’s alarm clock
saying, “Go to sleep.”
Chenay Bay – Fifth day
Through the rainforest.
Lunch at Rhythms Rainbow Beach,
then Carambola.
