Daily Conversation

"Golden is the morning-"
"Gee, it's cold outside"
"The frost is glistening on the grass-"
"I nearly froze my ass"

"A bird flew overhead-"
"That damn crow's at the trash again"
"-It flew toward the sun"
"I'll be glad when this job's done"

"A squirrel was on the lawn today-"
"I think I need a drink"
"-I wonder what he wanted there"
"Are you coming with that beer?"

 

Survivors of a Suicide

We mourn her
today
She
got away.

 

Odds and Ends

If we should meet in later years
The changes in us then
May make us seem like strangers
But I think we'll still be friends.

--

I smoke another cigarette
And drink a cup of tea
And no one knows what I think
And no one cares but me.
