Not to be swayed by one thought not worthy—
Keep this thought with you when I’m not.

Immaculate Conception
Not what you would think but
Poems as pure,
Crystalline
As the snow
That’s driven us
To perfection.

Supposition
What does it mean,
To grope? To an inquisitor,
I suppose it must
Mean to find yourself
Feeling uncertainty when
It happens
You find yourself fumbling
At the end of a rope.

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.
