Tyrant

.......IF MY TABBY BOY heard my voice sweet talking him

as I do when we embrace,


if I called for mercy,
he would eat me......

Stay

......DON'T SEE HOW HARD IT IS

for me to leave.

Can I shape your fantasy

before I slip out the door?

I will whisper an enchantment

in your ear.

You will fall into my eyes

and stay......

Haiku

Droning bee strokes wings
on petal, then flies from orchid...
stinger pointing out


Ice cubes bounce in glass
bubbles rise like pink balloons...
my mouth tastes gaiety.


Chimes let the summer
wind speak as evening cools
the blistering sun.


Dark star awakens bat
to wing into the purple
ashes of the day.


My soul a feather
of the white hawk that defines
a full, drumming heart.
