Her backpack has a picture of a poodle on it and a logo which reads, Radley,
it could be a doggie bag.

Waking up and going under
the wonder of a modern age,

Rebellion on the streets!
I turn the page and scan
the horoscopes.

Taurus
says
Love is in the air along with billions
of microbes, keep your mouth shut.

Crowded,
well it would be at five thirty three,
people sleepwalking to work
shadows stalking the daylight
talking of midnight in
Kyoto.

I don't think DRYJPN is a real word
even if it's as super as it says on the
jacket.

Strange times that we live in
and it's no wonder to me that
people give in
and bow before the winds of
change.

But
and but gets in at last,
well
past its sell by
but
it'll do.

Cut me loose

     from these strings

          that bind.


So I might again

     exercise the freedom

          of mind.

What If

In this wondrous world of ours,
What if kind was enough;
What if we all wanted
To be sorted into Hufflepuff;
What if compassion counted
Far more than being right,
More than being the best;
What if, in kindness we unite
