Hailstorm

Lighting's omen.
Thunder's din.
The sky has lost its marbles!
May the tournament begin!

Giraffe

Short-horned colossus
It's perfectly obvious.
You're one part spindly legs,
Nine parts esophagus.

Lightning Bugs

In my backyard
They burn peepholes in the night
And take snapshots of my house.

Squall

How blissful to note --
How at childbirth
A world catches
In a throat.

Little Piggy Everything

Oh, now there secretly
once stuffed a black kerchief
down can't tell you's mouth --
and who'll ever guess
watched little piggy everything,
in waistcoat and trousers,
lug that heavy I tell you,
with Love's dead body
snug in a bag of why nots,
upstairs where can't tell you
waited in the long, thin dark
of a last believe what you wish.

I'm Baggy In Because

I'm baggy in because
and snug in why,
all bundled
in my warm goodbye --
and smug in my now,
my Oh my some-how
come honey me with moon-gleam,
till I'm wild in my anyhow,
and every if's dream
a revolution of whys,
and humble never-was
slay mighty always-been
with surprise.

Scoop

After Socrates drank hemlock,
He closed his baby blues
and dreamed the seven o'clock
Sunday news.

Rainbow

After a rain storm,
People stand and stare
At that stretch of Heaven
They always knew was there.
