snow flurries -
my unborn grandchild's
perfect fingers | tempslibres |
stuck behind
a schoolbus -
thunderclouds | tempslibres |
crescent moon -
leaning her head
against my shoulder | tempslibres |
icy conditions -
another slide
on Wall Street | tempslibres |
converting to condos
the nightclub
where we met | tempslibres |
in a dark place
quietly fermenting
homebrew | tempslibres |
new moon -
time to lose
the beard | tempslibres |
emptying the wine bottle -
another conversation
about Mom | tempslibres |
my stock portfolio -
puddles filled
with winter rain | tempslibres |
occupying Wall Street
the ghosts
of my retirement dreams | tempslibres |
that recurring dream
in which I pull the fire alarm
and run | tempslibres |

Jesus and Mary
stopped at the border | tempslibres |
epiphany -
the gift of a dead mouse
at the door | tempslibres |
not softened
by sepia tones
images of war | tempslibres |
first thaw -
someone should have warned
the daffodils | tempslibres |
snow turns to rain -
wondering when
it all went wrong | tempslibres |

winter moths
at the door | tempslibres |

after the rain
a puddle filled
with stars | tempslibres |

on crumbs | tempslibres |

on the moon | tempslibres |

with nothing to do | tempslibres |
an oasis
in the Bible Belt --

after the storm

the golden highlights
in her green hair | tempslibres |

a flat finish
on Wall Street | tempslibres |
a long meeting --
permanent marker
on the erasable whiteboard | tempslibres |
sipping absinthe
the impressionist painting
of night | tempslibres |
urban incense --
a steaming
manhole cover | tempslibres |
sailing the seas
of my subconscious --
her fishnet stockings | tempslibres |
wolf moon --
suddenly I see her
in a different light | tempslibres |
laundry day --
the search
for matching socks | tempslibres |
Christmas leftovers --
my mother forgets
why she called | tempslibres |

a fresh layer of ice
on the fire escape | tempslibres |

goes flat | tempslibres |

she tells me I look good
for my age | tempslibres |
enlightment --
a police car
on fire | tempslibres |

an empty parking lot
at the nursing home | tempslibres |

the dog
no one wanted | tempslibres |
alone at the bar
the missing letters
in a neon light | tempslibres |

tequila bottle | tempslibres |
asleep
on the subway floor
the unknown soldier | tempslibres |

three bare trees
against a gray sky | tempslibres |

of strong coffee | tempslibres |
bitter wine --
time for that conversation
about Mom | tempslibres |
the old oak tree
where we first kissed
"marked with an ""X""" | tempslibres |
new photos
of my granddaughter --
crocuses in bloom | tempslibres |
twilight --
she tells me she has
a spare toothbrush | tempslibres |

from the pine | tempslibres |

with one eye open | tempslibres |
dusting off
the Christmas lights --
gibbous moon | tempslibres |
cold coffee --
the crunch of a Christmas ball
under foot | tempslibres |
her lips
beckoning mine --
highway billboard | tempslibres |
snow flurries --
my unborn granddaughter's
heartbeat | tempslibres |
darkening skies --
the final hours
of the weekend | tempslibres |
the moon
and my wine glass
half full | tempslibres |
town landfill --
old timers
arguing politics | tempslibres |
stock market report --
a stalled car
in the intersection | tempslibres |

all the leftover
Halloween candy | tempslibres |

my rising blood pressure -
a vapor trail
in the sky | tempslibres |
October dusk --
wishing I could see
just one more firefly | tempslibres |
hot city night --
the sizzle
of a broken sub-woofer | tempslibres |
her long legs ...
I walk right into
a spider web | tempslibres |
