Autumnal Illusion
Butterfly a
Lighting on
Dazzling
Colorful
Printed
Towel—
Opening and closing
Its wings, thinking
It’s settled
On a flower.

American Horror Story
In the end
We have no choice but
To examine the horrific
Possibility of what is
Actually out there was
Virtually everywhere
Inside us.

Anthem: America Out On A Limb
Do not be crestfallen,
A mere leaf trembling
In a mean wind;
You were made
For higher things
Stirring underground,
Compose yourself
For what is about
To begin.

Symplegades: Bottom Line on the 2016 US Presidential Election
For want of a fanciful dove,
The plumb bob snapped just
As the ship of fools was caught
Between two black clashing rocks
And in truth now lies
Broken at the bottom.

Chainlink Fences
—for John Levy
Who writes in a poem
About a drawing
About why he liked them
As a child so swell
And subdued
We can well imagine
Climbing up them even
If our feet are too large
And we too big
For our britches.
