1.
silent empty thoughts
what a repose from thinking
muted eloquence
2.
on the TV screen
a girl, killed by a gunshot
followed by an ad.
3.
dry apple chips
preserved sweetness of a harvest
still a green taste
4.
cheese toppings
full intensity of aged vitality
bubbles out over heat
5.
no snow on Christmas
grandpa looks out of window
calling it a white lie
6.
reading Emily Dickinson
mountains answer to mountains
moon stands by the sun
7.
she walks back and forth
measures her poetic pacing
five, seven, and five
8.
red is expanding
insecure in such confrontation
I throw in some green
9.
weightless blue above
brought down to bear on you
myth of gravity
10.
stay in all day long
I babysit my thoughts for hours
break only for coffee
11.
no one to rock it
an armchair stands still and alone
counting empty minutes
12.
on a blank page
ideas did not come, an ant did
but it said nothing
13.
gazing into space
to find black hole full to the rim
with secrecy
14.
a prodigious colour
black cups on white tablecloth
demonic intensity
15.
rocking in his chair
the sea still casts salt on his soul
his nautical beard
16.
one moon in the sky
throws reflection on every leaf
pale multitudes
17.
two cars clash
the forward-thrusting momentum
runs into a limit
18.
with little ecstasy
falling leaves land where winds
swept them over to
19.
another dandelion
in bright, well-heated sunlight
prematurely aged
20.
where is the author
tilling his fields of words
in his unfinished work
21.
can never be alone
when one is emptying his thoughts
into his shadow
22.
the old artist died
the cat did not return that night
unsuspecting
23.
lived as a Bohemian
he followed his ideal as its shadow
and died as one
24.
a huge moon rising
up-directing every pair of eyes
remotely compelling
25.
gas knob turns on
a hissing sound seized by a rage
as hot as fire
26.
feeling like God, he
throws colorful temptations on canvas
exacerbating beauty
27.
boiling pot reports
always assertive in its loudness
its steam escapes
28.
the sun is long gone
taking lights with him to home
a darker reflection
29.
that old broken chair
had seen the birth of an idea
one winter evening
30.
biting into the cake
her old coffee cup in one hand
she deforms an art
31.
alone along the trail
some thoughts fall from the trees
some run to the woods
32.
fog, falling gray and wet
as the first wash on a canvas
lies in wait for the sun
33.
framing the clouds
my window leans over the hilltop
hugging distances
34.
a blue jay
jumps on a fence
drops its shadow
35.
sipping coffee
thoughts get darker
warmer and stronger
36.
his writings
smells strong tobacco
coughs out a sentence
37.
a happy housewife
cooks meals
and haiku
38.
she and death
facing each other daily
one on one
39.
happiest time
lying in my husbands'arms
awake
40.
slow slugs
making wet declaration
on cold cement
