Poem #693

kitty kitty
“come and play”
kitty kitty
runs away

Poem #692

knitting and tea
calming and heat

Poem #691

animals and humans slumbering
on various surfaces in the room

Poem #670

dragon sits in inferno
her scales are fireproof
but the heat cracks them
now she’s vulnerable
please blow out the candles

Poem #669

I follow the rules
but the rules change

Poem #668

my atoms want to separate
quick!
hold me to keep me together

Poem #667

barely clinging to awake
I write
imagining everything
but editing nothing
dangerous freedom

Poem #666

floating in an abyss
she separates from herself

Poem #665

snail goes to house
she slimes onto the door
“hello? I am here”
door opens, person walks out
door closes, snail is still there
person says, “who is it?”
and they go back inside
snail hangs on
but is never noticed
eventually slime loses viscosity
and snail slides down
never heard
seen when dried up
why didn’t snail say anything?

Poem #664
