we met in the park
her face displayed misery
teeth decayed
she told me:
“I paint away the past
it is my therapy”

the fisherman
cast his line
then said:

Searching
Only found emptiness
Took a break
Sat by the river
Saw minnows
In close formation
Swim by
I started to cry
Remembering
When
All
Family
&
Friends
Said
Goodbye

lost
I sit and laugh
dark soon
will wait for my friend the moon

of
curry powder & cooked rice
one stubby pencil
I continue to write

Sitting on beach towel
Drinking fresh squeezed lemonade
Watching tide come go
Hot weather is here
Daily afternoon rainstorms
Bamboo on steroids
South Equator sun
Tan on beach skin feels so tight
We make love all night
