Word is out
Autumn will run
Well into winter,
Spring not far behind.

Careless
YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT,
REQUIRES YOU TO DESCRIBE CAREFULLY
IN FIFTEEN WORDS OR LESS
THE PITIFUL STATE OF AMERICAN POETRY
Who cares if care is required
To enrich poetry, pity
The poor slob who cares.

Invasion of the Slug People
You know
They’ve finally taken over
The world
When we no longer
Have the time
To shovel the slime
We’ve left behind.

Environmental Awareness
Lone predator
Scouring the environs,
Peregrine falcon out
On uppermost branch
Of blighted tree limb—
Pray keep an eye on him.

Quintessence
Worthy
O gods, the sprawling earth-
Bound spirits spawning
Their issue in aether,
Spilling their fire-
Like essence over
A consummate
Wine dark sea!
