Daylight Savings Time – March 9

Spring ahead and lose
an hour. What I could have done
in that length of time…

Among extraordinary women

I am the dull one, struck
mute by accomplishment
what I do, nothing.

1964 World’s Fair Unisphere

Flushing Meadows Park
once a site of hope. There, a
globe pledged future peace.

Morning in LeFrak City

On a cluttered Queens
balcony he stands, watching
the complex decay.

Dubious milestone

Just over five months
This one four hundred fifty
Art or wasted time?

I’ve lied to you

A haiku a day?
Not quite. Some days the tap runs,
some days it’s bone dry.

Negative campaigning

With all this trash talk
even the winner comes out
smelling like garbage.

In mourning early morning

J9 can’t sleep since
her mother died stays up and
writes heartache in tears.

Night before the Academy Awards

Dreams of Oscars like
sugarplums dance in their heads.
Hollywood’s Christmas.

Watching after 2 am

TV morphs into
loser land infomercials
for acne weight loss
