August sun sets---
but sunflowers are
still here

Astoria Park---
two men discuss
their love of Rivers

#sale

on the Brooklyn Bridge---
they offer for sale
only bottled water

#cat

morning stillness---
the cat plays
with a fly

#sunset

sunset---
a black and yellow butterfly
at my window

#sparrow

August boredom---
a sparrow stands on my balcony
and sings

#spider

Summer tidying---
a spider web catches
my emptiness

#heat

August heat---
an ice cream truck
ran out of gas

#sunset

sunset---
a homeless man
sets the New York Times on fire

a new barber---
he asks if I want
less gray hair

#force

on a bar stool---
the force of gravity
is stronger

#blue

blue sky---
the hum of the ac
August heat wave

#cool

August---
a hookah cafe bubbles
with cool

#fly

August---
a fly walks
up the thermometer
