Feels Like Spring

 

For Example

Flickering light bulb:
useless, annoying, futile.
My kingdom for Light!

Potassium salt,
like an insipid Christian:
Sorry, that was me.



The Men Are Working

Saw blades a-whirring,
stirring up toasty wood smells
in the barn--(garage).

Clang, bang, thud metal
To stud. Big nails, big hammer,
Big hands, big shoulders.

Glistening faces,
showing pride in their eyebrows,
not grinning like boys.



Nala II

Sprawling in the grass,
little white teeth, fangs exposed--
arching chest, paws up.

Black coat, hot and smooth,
ridiculous huge pink tongue
lolls and flops, delighted.

I'm a child! she laughs,
rubs her back in sandy dirt,
sniffs delicious air.
