faster than ever
slower than you
on a bicycle
turning
paces
tucked away in the sun
is the next day
and all
the days
it chases
All posts in category short poems
faster than ever slower than you

two drowsy loosely fully spooning mooning pairs of eyes
survive as lies
loose jacket lint
a new day’s compromise
loose jacket lint
a new day’s compromise

how alike we are
hold me not
in the sunlight
hold me not
in the spotlight
hold me not
on the dance floor
or under the microscope
hold me
behind the walls
that hold
your secrets
and I
will tell you
how alike we are

engine melted black
did you think the fire would
last forever?

boxed peaceful
do you know those
boxed peaceful
made peaceful
under grain
beaten by the rain
all summer
then again
they all had
the same journeys
they all have
the same name
beaten by the rain
all summer
then again

diamonds to another world
the woman looks to her
goodbye
to the lady with the
laughing
one on
a bed
on one
a bare floor
with half
the planks gone
we pull out our hair
to reveal our thoughts
we tear out the sand
to reveal
diamonds
to another world

flowers of the ocean
somewhere dead petals
flung on live shores
where their color contrasts with the sands
flowers of the ocean
where are your hands
and weeds of the sea
what were your demands
and what have you done wrong
to wind up here
on rusted metal
crushed cans of beer
listening to this summer’s song
under the boardwalk stands

instructions not included
stole a long train
on a short track
on a drunken teenage dare
shoveled coal all night
to keep the caboose filled
didn’t get me anywhere

“Don’t jinx me!”
Demo Pilot,
Relax.
You’ve done this a hundred times before.

smoke sister
register the rhyme
smoke sister
treat colors
as breaks in the grey
