Two posturing NubiansVying for a pet
A regular Hatfield-McCoy feud
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.
