BANG

the robin has hit the window 

he’s dead!!

 they filmed

a helicopter that crashed

filming a bus crash

 the rickety pier 

between a thought

and a poem

 my writing slopes

in a different direction

• new school year

 language the key to unlocking the key

 that tree one day a

shelf for memorabilia 

~ life’s rings 

 reverse biography

home becomes a destination 

diaspora a beginning  

 creativity

both draining and fulfilling 

at the same time 

 gravity spins

around the plug hole

of wondering 

gentle music

a muscle twitches 

out of sync 

 lobelia blues

stuck to a wet table

in september 

 a cat

suddenly notices me

• stand-off
