ANOTHER NO CREMATION NOTE
ANOTHER NO CREMATION NOTE
Never appearing in a Shakespeare play alas
yet not wanting to give up
the outside chance
of the Yorick role
A HAIKU FOR HAWKING
A HAIKU FOR HAWKING
Stephen Hawking dead
theories now put to the test
black hole or white light
OTHER STUFF WE KNOW BUT DON’T UNDERSTAND
OTHER STUFF WE KNOW BUT DON’T UNDERSTAND
If a particle becomes
a wave by observation
what of love
and what it animates
in the beheld and the beholder
DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE
DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE
The coyote doesn’t howl at the moon
he howls to the other coyotes
to remind them to look up
WINDOWS
WINDOWS
Propping a window open with a book
remembering where I get my air and light
A HOLY ERROR
A HOLY ERROR
Making a scarecrow
in the image of Francis
the monk lost his crop
PUTIN ON THE RITZ
PUTIN ON THE RITZ
Communism is dead
the day the leader
gets two crusts of bread
THE CHICKEN WHO COULDN’T SPELL
THE CHICKEN WHO COULDN’T SPELL
Crossed the road
looking for a kernel
and found a colonel
THE THINGS YOUR CHILDREN WILL SEE
THE THINGS YOUR CHILDREN WILL SEE
Sunflowers would run to meet the sun
roots hold them back, they send their seeds
