chasm

Two friends, either side of a canyon,
“hello” they laugh, delighting
in each other’s echo.

Two friends see each other
on the other side of a valley.
“See you soon!” they shout.

Two friends lost at night,
divided by the sound of a river,
“Where are we?” they cry.

Two friends, a double-sided mirror
set between them,
“Who are you?” they demand.

Two friends write letters;
letters travel, by air, sea, land,
each says the same thing,

“When I read your words, I see you.”

Two friends, no shared language,
touch finger to finger, hand to hand,
smile, know each other.

Let Go Donald Let Go!

Don’t matter what USA say
Donald can change it anyway
If he don’t like it
he won’t play
see where that leaves you
Mr. and Mrs. Yesterday
You’re so loser

spring storm

blue grey opal shoals of storm blow
tonight though it is still pink pearl dusk
and each obsidian shadow a life of its own

Mountain of birds

The very moment when all goes wrong
the thought who will pay, how will this be fixed
pale beside the sight of the mountain of birds.
The innocent, slain, built into a burial heap,
what’s wrong, in your life, with your lie?

_pray Foam

Driving home
I follow a truck,
written on its back
“_pray Foam,” and I think
