Switching to vampire
office hours. In bed past noon.
I write without light.

Buddy
Well-loved now. Rescued
he was matted with feces,
eyes begging for home.
Devolved
Dissolution is
the caterpillar’s abased
path to butterfly.
Withdrawal
She hates her friends at
the moment. They cling, their needs
crowding out her self.
After school
Anyone can see
she’s depressed. Crashed on the couch
sleeping beauty dreams.
October
Summer warmth still clings
Like gum on a shoe, with all
the stickiness gone.
Following
My need to be first
makes me sweep away footsteps
that precede my own.
Deadline
When nearing the end
why is it that time speeds up
precipitously?
Can’t sleep
Is it the green tea
or the excitement of new
possibilities?
Scarred
The third degree burns,
generated by love that
intense, never heal.
