turning

the world is turning
the galaxy is turning . . .
who’s watching the kids?

chopping block

our blissful wedlock
became a double headlock . . .
on the chopping block

on the moon

living on the moon . . .

tilt my head

the river flows south
but I want it to flow north . . .
tilt my head just right

can’t fail

planets have aligned
into a love labyrinth . . .
love can’t fail me now!

mister bugaboo

mister bugaboo
he’s a cat, and sometimes two . . .
as a friend, he’ll do

multitasking

I’m sitting upright
but it feels more like sleeping . . .
just multitasking
