1.
rehashing
an old rumor...
ants
take refuge
in the sugar bag
2.
last
of the summer crickets-
chuckling
at the love names
we trade in bed
3.
leaving
my wheat crusts
for the birds-
the best I can do
till payday
4.
not black enough
to fit in...
a stray dog
barking
into midnight
5.
as if waiting
for me
to notice her-
day moon
6.
he too
must be wifeless
tonight-
old tomcat
on the front step
7.
doctor's prognosis
by phone
why now...
nodding to a song
I never liked?
