Heavyweight Greeting Card

you 

open

 

it 

and 

out 

 

of 

the 

blue— 

 

voila! 

 

a 

deep 

violet 

blue 

 

dragon- 

fly 

un- 

folds 

 

its 

paper 

thin 

 

wings 

and 

light 

 

as 

a 

feather 

 

weight 

lifts 

you 

 

up 

and 

away 

 

light 

as 

an 

ephemeral 

 

fly. 

 

 

 

Whitewashed Janus

The worst 

You can do is still

 

Better than what 

You’ve done 

 

So far—but try 

Till you’re blue 

 

In the face, 

For the likes 

 

Of me, 

You'll never be

 

Able to

Tell the difference.

 

Haiku: Nothing New To Report Here

Wherever you look,

That same blank stare of cyphers 

Outfacing you—look! 

 

 

 

AlieNation

Sometimes we think 

Perhaps we are not 

Of this world and more 

 

Often than not, we 

Actually believe it— 

Until we look 

 

In the mirror and 

In that proverbial blink 

Of an eye can’t 

 

Unbelieve it.

 

Lux Sit Found Not Wanting

The first thing 

Each dawn gives you remains 

 

The last thing you wish 

To give up.
