Poem #653
I see a man at a table
he’s talking and laughing
but I can’t see his partner
I wonder if he laughs to himself
Poem #652
curly haired dog
you are an angel
your heavenly color, my clue
snuggle to my chest
lick my hand
nuzzle my arm
all sugar, no spice
Poem #651
two kisses in the morning:
one when I get up
turn her over
and try not to miss her lips
she smiles sleepily
one when I leave
lift her chin
and lean almost falling over
she mumbles, “I love you, see you later”
Poem #650
my mind exploded
all my muscles tensed
to keep my bones from shaking
I didn’t even realize
until I couldn’t read
I had things to do
so I shut the door
the other room rumbled
while I tried to ignore it
nothing was right
I wasn’t feeling
but I drove then ate
finally went to sleep
then I stopped
but I’m still scared
to open the door
