Lair of the pack rat

HGTV shows
designer homes while I nest
in my own clutter.

A little obsessed

I keep coming to
post like a lover checking
for text messages.

Meditative mind

Silence erases
thoughts and stress like dry markers
wiped clean from white boards.

Thanksgiving – after dinner

Post-tryptophan, we
watch Forrest Gump and digest
the day’s memories.

Thanksgiving – no time for diets

Don’t count calories.
Savor silken pumpkin, tart
cranberries. Taste joy.

Thanksgiving baking

Tempting smells – so strong
they nearly satiate the
appetite – drift by.

Description

We are all in search
of the quote that defines us.
Self in sentence form.

Existence

Accomplishment is
a relative term. You live,
breathe, think. That’s enough.

Thanksgiving – turkey envy

Brine, barbecue, deep
fry, roast, smoke? How many ways
can you do one Tom?

Edward Scissorhands

A-Depp-t cult classic
fairy tale, gothic icon
all rolled into one.
