Crow

The crow in the tree
Is actually          
A black trash bag.

Kiss

In the middle of midnight,
Night and morning kiss and part:
Parting is such sweet sorrow.

A Double-dactyl on Dickinson
Emily shmemily,
Emily Dickinson,
Recluse and poetess,
Rendered her rhyme

Idiosyncrously,
Much of her poetry
Reading most cryptically
Much of the time.
idiosyncrously – like "idiosyncratically" but doubly dactyllic

          terrible, horrible, torrible and—**** it!—just absolutely
          totally deplorable!

A Leaf Falls

A yellow leaf falls          
And hits me in the stomach:    
Last day of summer.
