#Tabasco

Tabasco* under water---
sun sauce up your rays
to dry faster

*Mexican state flooded by rain


#blue

blue sky---
a man lifts up his head
and whistles

#pockets

early November---
everyone walks
with hands inside their pockets

#fly

morning stillness---
a fly has survived
Halloween

#sunset

sunset viewing
through a glass window---
she's in the Bahamas

#blue

blue morning sky---
the Angora cat
sleeps under my bed

#Park

Madison Square Park---
cold wind makes it
harder to day dream

#seat

morning rush---
there is
an empty seat

#name

at the Halloween Parade---
she says her name
is George

#mummy

with all these rag dolls
for Halloween---
I miss my mummy

#blue

blue sky---
no more whistling
of sad tunes

#black

close to Halloween---
a sign says
we have black roses

#blue

blue sky---
a column of smoke
too embarrassed to go up

#moon

he answers the door
face covered with shaving cream---
day moon
