jaybird shrieking
cursing God or Gravity
- her egg still falls
“To Hell with Descartes!”
          Scream anxious knots in my back
Tangled like body and mind
-
the languid bee
sulks on parking lot weeds
soon we all will rest
-
the swatted fly bursts
      like the Big Bang
I am God
-
the flyswatter hovers  
      hesitating -  
should I play God today?
-
chalk faded
         from the sidewalks
the kids are grown now
-
the sun drops
through the hourglass
drip... drip... drip...
-
hairy patches
below painted toes
am I less of a woman now?
footprints in the sand
       confirmation I exist
washed away
-
damp summer night
used ******
in the parking lot
