In and out of sleep
like a polar bear content
never to paw ground
*
Check out the eclipse,
baby he says though the words
had to travel here
*
A neverending
font of dishes in the sink
Geography lies
*
Empty cinema
Grey fedora as a shield
I hide like a child
*
It rains on the house
we’ve deserted, black roof tiles
bellyup on grass
*
Car brimming with girls
Dancesong tuned on high
I still look sixteen
*
Walking up the street
grayed by products meant to melt
the ice that floors me
*
Bark balls, lemon squares,
crescent cookies, sugar ones
All of us like dough
*
Cell phone on the sill
clock set to San Diego
My heart, a commuter
