Reckoning

Voices rose in sharp keening
The dry grass caught
And the world began to burn
Ancestors' voices whispered in their ears
As they focused their rage into a reckoning

Consequences

Men can spread themselves like weeds in a wind storm
and women must endure the consequences

You are a Storm

You said I was your rock
But rocks succumb
To weather and water
And you are a storm

Beware love spells.
Beware the wanting.

I used to write for you

I used to write for you
Now I only write about you
You do not have the patience
Or maybe the capacity for poetry

The Baker and the Bee #2

The Baker and the Bee
While tasting some brie
Decided that they wanted to host a party

They invited the quail
And the swan who was pale
And the pup with the happy tail

They hung a banner with glee
Upon the honey tree
And shared all their sweets for free

The Baker and the Bee

The baker and the bee
Sat beneath the honey tree
Sharing a cup of mint tea

The breeze filled with wild herbs and
Blossom smells, and the songs of birds
As the two shared friendly words

“Isn’t this lovely?” said the bee
The baker was quick to agree
“It is truly lovely, indeed.”
