Poem #539

you need to write
doesn’t matter if it makes you sleepy
get more sleep
you need to write
doesn’t matter if Facebook is calling
get off the internet
you need to write
doesn’t matter if you have no time
get your life in order
you need to write

Poem #536

the capacity of this magic bag astounds
a wallet for purchasing things
a phone for communicating
keys for limited access
a cloth for cleaning glasses
coins for small purchasing needs
shells for a master art exhibit
firework remnants for the memories
comb for detangling hair nests
huzzah!

Poem #533

in the middle of downtown Eugene
a family lives together
in the 2nd floor apartment
two dogs and fours cats
and life is easy
husband cooks dinner
wife waters plants
kid does his homework
grandma knits her sweaters
and it feels right
