Caught him playing house
Arm around the neighbor girl
Wasn’t his idea
Dad turned seventy
Outlived all previous men
Live on borrowed time
At the same time ask
Why we fight and who we are
One nation or world?
Memorial Day
Observed with flags and parades
Honor those who serve
We are all programmed
Truths given not discovered
Our thoughts not our own
Dandelions grow
In all yards. Some folks pull them
Others let them be
They gave good feedback
Approaching it cold they saw
Things I could not see
Like a game of chess
I move my pawns while other
Pieces move themselves
Waiting to decide
Or waiting to implement?
Can’t tell them apart
Writing a novel
Fiction taken from my life
What’s real and what’s not?
Redbird Studio
I don’t know what to expect
Going there tonight
What’s best for the team?
What’s best for me? For the firm?
Which takes precedence?
Poignant dilemma
Torn between worry and love
He’s scared, he’s stupid
Won’t open his mouth
No matter what tricks she plays
He’s made up his mind
