Majestic sweeping
Towering over hilltops
Draw power from wind

Fences make neighbors
They say, but I feel bridges
Will make neighbors too

Flowers laid roadside
Vigilante signs saying
"Danger! Dear lives lost"

Seven Sentence Story

"I guess it's about these robots that free themselves and kill everyone"

The man's rheumy eyes shone as he leaned forward in the dim light, "so you understand why we need to find God."

The youth held fast against all instincts to recoil and replied, "not really,"

"Because if we don't find It first, they'll kill It"

Ranks distant second

Goes hardest of all carols
Absolute banger

What magical days
Lounging between holidays
Put the world on pause

More family pours inside
Tracking in more joy

I gotta pee, bad.
Drive too fast, bouncing bursts me
Too slow, time runs out

Effort for a second's not
Christmas mandalas

I've drunk a bit much
And think of your all out there
You're gems, I love you

Knowing your own tastes
Compass needle knowing north
Fills me with envy!

Dogs begging forbidden scraps

The right way to eat oysters
The pleasure of slow

Youthful appetites whetted
To bed then back down

Family surrounds
Tales of Christmas past grow long
Tempers remain short

Between fish, fruit, vegetables
There, my flower girl
