Heady, Unruly Spirit


Don’t look now—wind 
Heading your way— 

More than strong 

Enough to carry that 
Heedless head off

And away.

Step Lively, Scouts!


As a way out of deep depression, 
They told us to go back 
As far as we could and keep an eye 

Out for any signs of life, any 
Footprints that would tell us something 
Substantial had been here before— 

All we came across was that familiar 
Hollow echo of footsteps dragging 
The depths that kept after us everywhere 

We had to go.

Eureka! (Or How to Stop Deadly Writer's Block Once and for All)


Stare at a blank piece of paper long enough 
And before you know it, bang!— 

You’ll find your head filled with lead.

A Poem Should Be (11)


Unlike a Facebook like— 
A not unmoving contra 
Diction in terms— 

There when 
You need it 
And still 

There when 
You don’t.
