assorted flavors
candid in your candor
candy canes
stripes
upon thy back
lashes lashes
blink your eyes
in flashes
of color coded
dreams I know
you better when you’re
sleeping

Life:
a hop & a leap;
a hare away from death.
Osiris
Osiris
may I build
my tower higher
drop me off upon top
of I’s insufficient steeple
preamble pointed pentagram
foreclosed housed inside octagon
silly villains thinking with between legs
Contrary Vine
I can’t tell you how many times
I’ve seen it happen
tomatoes on vine fight
for color
fight for plump
fight to choke life out of
very vine
ego heavy, fall off
drop to ground bruised
rot in sun
all mashed and tasteless
I cannot tell you how many times
I’ve picked clean
this cherry tomato scab
to reassure I still bleed
still red, indeed
and the flies swoop down for sweet
garbage feast
