A Regular Storm

Rolling sky blast beatsLead by taiko clatters and strikes–

Flashes of spot lights

Reveal white, gray, blackened shades

While a deluge cascades

Fat droplets through live oaks.

Cooper Hall, USF, Florida

Monotone sound waves

Bombard the inner drum;

Idle chatter is birdsong

That lightens the mood.

Bracket Traffic

Traffic bracketed between

An accident

And construction

Inch by inch

Every few

Minutes

Move

As I

Cruze comfortably by

A Rock Music History

Alternative and Metal
Musical relatives under
The Rock family.

Great grandfather Blues
The common ancestor
That crossed the pond.

Bluegrass and Folk
Several times removed uncles—
Same Celtic origins.

Avian Leaves

Bluejay fly by
Avian chatter overhead
Gentle breeze settles leaves

Shovel hand

Velociraptor hand
Bent, taut, jerky responses.
Nails shovel and mark
Skin, sheets, book pages.

Sharing the Roads

Connected by rubber and leather
Eyes on asphalt, voices on the phone, ears tune in to the radio.
I vow with all beings
to appreciate the company along the drive

Golden Hoards

Reading of hoards and the Wellton 26
all for college classes.
May the bones rest in the shifting sands
and the spirits unearth the unknown past.

Frightened Anger

Anger: a friend of ill-will
that lunges and lashes out.
I vow with all beings
to face the frightened self it is
