bracelet always
where i
rest
it,

next to wanting
wallet,

coffee
ring

like skull and
bones..

around my
phone’s
not

where i
left
it,

next to missing
wallet.

my dime a dozen
bird song,

you gong,
and

move on-

i trill
sonnet,

you vomit,

i rescue
hair-

whisperin’
haiku..

you gag,

do i
inspire..

desire me
too?

took
tomorrow,

hoping today
would

look the other
way,

this old man’s
45..

flips all day,
any day

it skips, it
skips..

spin cycle
sick-

it
skips,

page one
rips..

page two
sticks to script,

time tripping
on loose
hands,

but
a drop

in sea of
man.

rhapsody’s
tricky
to

rhyme
believably,

naturally, certain
words don’t
work,

unglued brain
at work..

pressed to find
catharsis,

tulips planted
where my
arse
is,

rhapsody’s
a trying rhyme,

just wasting
time.

Blood Moon
Mary

spinning
solo

in
meadow

at dusk’s
kiss,

catch her
flash,

seldom fogged
by shadow,

face to
stars,

next to rusted
wreck

only gets
the

past so
far.
