like honey



the brown and the pink
and the green of the summer
are stored like honey

sometimes I push back



the gossamer sky
weighs billions of tons they say;
sometimes I push back

unripe and spiky



unripe and spiky
with a secret that will seed
the sidewalk vainly


sailing quiet



Sailing quiet above
the softened mountain valley
is expanding hope



Sharknado, an inside joke that became a smash TV movie franchise, is officially dead



These movies were so overripe
they spawned a whirlwind of big hype.
The reason must be
that through history
the public enjoys some good tripe.

The Tweets of Trump



Where’s the Collusion? They made up a phony crime called Collusion, and when there was no Collusion they say there was Obstruction (of a phony crime that never existed). If you FIGHT BACK or say anything bad about the Rigged Witch Hunt, they scream Obstruction! @realDonaldTrump



I never will stoop to collude
with anyone anywhere, dude.
And I've always bucked
the urge to obstruct;
Integrity I do exude.

the lid of my earthly home



What holds up the lid
of my earthly home today
is homely but true


the mystery of light



the mystery of light
is that it mocks yet loves brown
leaves at summer's height

the battle goes on



the battle goes on
between hard and soft degrees
of slow persuasion


a glory like this



a glory like this
is  unseen by passengers
who hang by their straps
