unraked beds of leaves. Nature’s
default is beauty.

Bedtime
Why does burrowing
under thick down comforters
bring such sheer delight?
Motivation
Decided last night –
Caribbean for Christmas.
Will work for travel.
Stephen King films
We longed for The Mist
and 1408 like kids
dreaming of Christmas.
Laundry basket
Socks multiply when
mated yet produce offspring
that never quite match.
High school
You’ll never again
feel pain, joy both at once. Be
so at odds with life.
Children’s show
J’s Sleeping Beauty.
Small kids grab at her princess
gown with sticky hands.
Scenes from an Italian restaurant chain
After the high school
show they flirt over pizza
sodas at Uno’s.
Autumn precedence
Trees have never held
leaves as late as November.
Frost was wrong. Gold stays.
Get a life
Front-load energy
saving washer. Fun to watch
clothes spinning around.
