The last few hours
Time ticked ticked ticked
Oblivious to the circle
Of change
Initiated by outright
Terror.
Wide awake at 4 AM.
Bright lightnight on.
Hello morning.
Sleep at dawn
To begin
A new day
Tired
Spent
Waiting
For early disruptive evening
Rest.
Tick tock tick tock tick
"please stop watching the clock"
Home.
Bed.
Rest.

Pink plastic prickly
Stuck at weird angles
Threaten
To tear out already thin
Brown and gray hair.
Liar! Or crazy.
A nightmare to the rescue,
A ghost standing right over there,
Don't get in that dryer.
That's not a safe place to play
Hide and seek.
Liar! Crazy!
Oh but love and love and
Lovey love.
Liar! Crazy!
*** and coke will make
One run and choke.
Liar. Crazy.
Mix ketchup with scrambled eggs
Eat, pull hair, look at new baby.
Go through the motions.
It never happened.
Liar! Crazy!
Houseguest to the rescue.
Ghost dressed in
Familiar clothes.
Nakedness, no need to expose.
Garden instead.

Cash
More cash
A bit more cash
Some cash because you know, bills
And
Could really use some cash
Um, cash
A check
A really good job without hours
And
Oh yeah
Thank you thank you thank you
persistence gets paid right?
or produces character, I don't need...
Cash - not a lot just enough
to
Cover.

It's blackout
Look!
Peek behind the curtain
It sure is blackout
Playing with toy soldiers
Green plastic
destined for the landfill
Blackout!
Empire State Building
Blacked out.
World Trade Center
Blacked out.
Playing behind curtains
War.

In our breath
Closer than our couch
Humming
With electricity
Outside too
But remember not so far
Close
So we want to cover up.
Near and intimate
Knowing every thought
Not a stalker!
Haha! Not!
Closer still
Sensing every sense
Smells our skin
Soft and calloused there
Hovering
Infusing
Indwelling
I'm denying.

Green
Blood artery flows
Jagged rocks on bare feet
And wide open blue skies
A path, well-worn, brown dirt lined with high grass,
A daisy bouquet offered
By
a motherless faun
Left looking now it rains
Refuses shelter
Frightened defenseless yet defending
With cries that won't hurt me
Follow me? - I'm not mother
Enter my home?
I'm motherless too.

Catches your eye
On the sly
Wants to know why
You eat pie.
"Why you eat pie?"
