I’m staring at the clock;
I can hear the cog sounds
As I’m kneeling here to pray
For some simple, true sights,
But people come and knock,
And my faithful dog sounds–
So I’ll make them go away
And go look for new sights.
I stop down at the dock–
You should hear the frog sounds!
And walking all the day,
I find quite a few sights,
Like a farmer and his stock
Both making hog sounds,
So a warning, if I may:
You cannot undo sights!

This shot shows the intense focus my new cat Loki has, and yes, he certainly lives up to his name. Isabelle was 17 years old, and slept most of the time; Loki likes to tear around, bouncing off walls, and generally causing trouble, but he’s very lovable as well.

lightning
beautiful, deadly
flashing, exploding, booming
a hair-raising experience

the sun slides away–
featureless silhouettes seem
to squirm and shapeshift

God’s message about
your near-death experience:
Can you hear me now?

Beyond our
Earthen carousel,
The stars,
In vast array,
Light up
Our cosmic carnival–
The twinkling
Milky Way.
The fairway
Teems with stars,
Perhaps
Five hundred
Billion strong;
Look up
And see the galaxy–
It’s open
All night long.

summer has come
people will do things
mothers will cry
