Dressing up

Oct 31

A pregnant nun fights
With a construction crew, while
Santa Claus looks on.


Oct 25

Hip ticks tell volumes.
I move like I'm still fighting.
He just kept guessing.


Oct 18

Smell of fresh cedar
On air, suddenly frigid
Biting biking hands.


Oct 10

Caffeinating crowd
Lined up against the sunbeams
Gets ready for train


Oct 2

Barefoot, 2 am
City streets like cold black rock
From dry river bed


Sept 18

Green does not mean go
When guac sits on desk all day,
Then makes stomach sore.


Sept 12

Tired, hungover,
I stare at keyboard dust balls,
Think of action words.


Sept 8

Pointing at my dog,
Little boy says, "A lion!"
He's a city kid.
