Jack-o'-Lantern

Jack O'Lantern's sad
Flickering tears sear his cheeks
Until death he weeps

Her 3 a.m.

Kicks off stilettos
Smears racoons from her tired eyes
Violently cries

December

Shivering maples
Paint the heavens shades of grim
Wistful is the wind

Daylight Wasting

Never mind the time
We should listen to the sun
Abide by her shine

Dancing for the Stars

Cavemen knew better
Than to take stars for granted
They danced for their light

Clutching Sand

I still cling for life
To what died by my own hands
Dreams reduced to sand

Chorus in the Cornfield

Stray birds build a choir
Scarecrow dances with the wind
Golden ears perk up

Brighten

If I were a star
I'd brighten your dark corners
No matter how far

Behind the Veil

Pay no attention
To the girl behind the veil
She's not up for sale

Bees and Sisters

Sunflowers squabble
Jealous of their big sisters
Bees think they're silly

Ash and Beauty

Butterflies and kings
One empress of pure beauty
One despot of ash

Amber Puddles

Dying maple leaves
collect in shallow puddles
Autumn collages

Ageism

He was not born old
He was not born obsolete
You're looking at you
