140 masks

Diamond crying tears, your cheeks are winter-blind, with hollowed eyes behind; I fear the nightstars weep for you, & swallows fly your soul.

140 Beatle kids

We sang to the Beatles & altered the words: If there’s anything you don’t want. We helped & we worked, Little Children, at home with our mom

140 for King David

Alas my King see how you fall For love’s embrace unconquered all Killed with a kiss what fate befalls Who forfeited his bliss for Bathsheba?

140 jejune

Jejune & cold devoid of meaning warm caress destroyed; Evolved from freedom’s gracelessness unhinged, anticipating thus; & thus be unbelonged.

140 for making up words

The birds that twitter, witter on, beflitter thoughts so swiftly gone, belittle deeper truth and wrong, these songtwits losing iterable tune

140 because Christas is coming

They call us reindeer. Honestly! The cheek of it, to speak of deer with wings. You’d think they’d understand, we’re Santa’s dragon-sleighers

140 underwater warmed

I spied you through the glass then closed the spyglass, sealed the door. I spied you at the last, but submarined, and warmed, I spy no more.
