Forced

Disappointment like
a kidney punch makes it hard
to smile through the pain.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

He had a dream but
his murder was our nightmare.
It’s time to wake up.

Toil and trouble

Cleaning is like con-
fession. You’re surprised by dirt
under the surface.

Tree falls in the forest analogy

I stop posting in
the blogosphere.  No one reads
me. Do I exist?

Time to start supper

Some people like to
cook. Then there’s me who dreads that
thing called dinner hour.

Undone

Intention shines high
above like a star I see
and dream of reaching.

Freelance writer

The more I write the
more I lose my hold on words
that speak without me.

Tomorrow’s flight

I’ll Dramamine my
self into torpidity,
sleep through drink service.

A Christmas story

If I could shoot my
eye out with that thing, I’d just
sit and watch TV.

See hear taste smell touch

If you had to pick,
what sense would you sacrifice?
Impossible choice.
