My New Chair

Everybody sits Chairs caned, carved, stitched from flat stones Bluest clouds gathered

Balm

A hundred years here Wear a blue moon on a chain Time sheds like dog fur

Sometimes victory Smells like a gas leak, seeping Wary of a match ________________ Photo by Devin Avery on Unsplash

Not Fair

Kind neighbor rabbi Drives old car home from Brooklyn Gets extreme welcome

River Boy

River dog, rock paws Lapping currents going by Nosing left fish bones

After

Is hugging a child Like riding a bike, sailing wild down a steep hill
