that fart
prayer fans
all sermon long | tempslibres |
thaw--
a winter moth struggles
against a spider thread | tempslibres |
skylight-
a contrail crosses
her line of coke | tempslibres |
antique store-
the ocean loud
in a seashell | tempslibres |
dusk--
songbirds' voices
disappear too | tempslibres |
indian summer-
rouging her cheeks
as she waits for a drink | tempslibres |
evening service --
light beams
into the night | tempslibres |
food channel --
"between commercials
" | dinner burns |
autumn
along the highway
buzzards wait | tempslibres |
evening shadows…
the things we deny
become more visible | tempslibres |
rain puddle . . .
a refugee child stirs
the cold moon | tempslibres |
wildflowers
in each clay pot
abandoned family garden | tempslibres |
cold winter —
another patch
in the old blanket | tempslibres |
withered peony
her love story
after menopause | tempslibres |
women’s day —
nothing has changed
except her Facebook status | tempslibres |
climatic change —
under heavy snow
the refugee camp | tempslibres |
jury duty
the clock pendulum goes
back and forth | tempslibres |
summer breeze--
someone practices drums
in the valley | tempslibres |
no rain--
the sound of crunched
grass | tempslibres |
museum--
so hot the mummy
sweats | tempslibres |
summer rain--
drops descend the lily
leaf by leaf | tempslibres |
hail storm
the golfers run
for cover | tempslibres |
night sax. . .
dreams in
B flat | tempslibres |
between
thunder and lightning
zero | tempslibres |
I rescue
a mouse from the cat--
burnt steak | tempslibres |
Memorial Day
an old couple rereads
the letter | tempslibres |
Saturday night--
someone vomits beneath
the blossoms | tempslibres |
evening rain—
buying cherry trees
online | tempslibres |
mid April
the grass finally
looks like grass | tempslibres |
noon sun--
someone playing scales
on a saxophone | tempslibres |
shaving--
I share the mirror
with a spider | tempslibres |
spring flies
buzz above my head--
E flat | tempslibres |
starless sky—
dead batteries
in the flashlight | tempslibres |
out of the fog—
a white barn with painted
butterflies | tempslibres |
paint peels off
the old white house—
March thaw | tempslibres |
same path
even in deep snow—
the blind horse | tempslibres |
spring day
two hawks circle below
the contrails | tempslibres |
spring rain
cars slowly leave
the cemetery | tempslibres |
beautiful orange butterfly
lands on his shoulder~
oblivious | tempslibres |
trembling
the hair ribbon falls
with inhibitions | tempslibres |
sixty miles later
red leaves from my mum’s garden
stuck to my windscreen | tempslibres |
profound blue of night
the resin and salt of pines
so far from the sea | tempslibres |
scattered in the ditch
like tiny scraps of blue sky
bits of plastic bag | tempslibres |

monday morning -
a white butterfly follows
the train line | tempslibres |
after the quake
