Rain

scouring smell
after the rain
clean and electric.

Weather (vain) ?

Weather vain?
in a Burberry coat
she strides in high heels

playground at dusk

dead, dry leaves
old, rusty swingsets
playground at dusk

observers

children gazing at
goldfish swimming in a bowl
so too, my cat.

Wisconsin protests

In Wisconsin
more holes
than cheese

Silver dollar moon

Silver dollar moon
its mint-condition reflects
small change on earth

change in formula

A baby's burp
so unaffected
-- so necessary

Park bench

late afternoon sun
on a metal park bench
pigeons scatter

No more Mamelukes in Egypt!

Bullwhips' roar
cannot drown out
their quiet voices
