Trick or treat 2

Halloween spirit
eludes me, like the ghost of
someone I once loved.

Coffee house office

Wi Fi whore, I go
where there’s access, drinking bad
java just to surf.

Overworked

When the going gets
tough, I end up sleeping on
the couch, fully clothed.

Daylight savings time

Turn the clocks back next
week? I could use that extra
hour of sleep right now…

Trick or treat

Decorations for
Halloween still not up. Life
seems scary enough.

Bride of Frankenstein

The review called her
‘fetching’ – wrapped in bandages,
convulsing, bleeding.

Clothing exchange

Suddenly it’s too
chilly to wear a tshirt.
Autumn’s in the house.

Sleepless in New York

My eyeballs feel like
they’re wearing socks – thick, itchy,
uncomfortable.

Upstate New York

Hurricanes…wildfires…
tornadoes…earthquakes…not here.
Safe beyond measure.

Hometown

Back east, the skies are
clearing, blue unending. Cool
dampness. Leaves changing.
