How Poets End Up Getting The Reader's Goat


Remember leading that nag 
To water to no avail? Well, 
Your exasperating poetic

Manner reminds me of a nanny
Goat that gives us a milk can 
Full to the brim, then 

Straightaway kicks it 
Over before we can fully 
Take all that wholesomeness in.

No Trespassing--This Means You!


This abandoned derelict has nothing left to say 
Of what went on inside it, years of pent-up anger 
Keep it shut away.

A Poem Should Be (17)


Finely spun as a spider’s 
Web poised deceptively 
In the morning sun, 

And you an ephemeral 
Struggling captive soon 
To be undone.
