• Warsaw in Autumn

    Tired and forgotten corners,

    Warsaw’s old and weary mourners,

    .

    Fiats dead on mossy bricks,

    The pain that only hope inflicts,

    .

    I saw you once with eyes unclouded,

    Windows clogged and face beshrouded,

    .

    Memories which stretch across,

    Tinted futures, auburn loss.

  • Glare

    Blinding sheet of tattered rags, blocking the dull, grey sun,

    .

    Never sure what is real, beneath that mask of years,

    .

    You had to have known that it could never last,

    .

    Suddenly it makes sense in the last moments,

    .

    How inconvenient,
    .
    You breathe.

  • Grandfather / The Trip

    Getting there is half the trip,
    Grandfather said that, I think,
    Bent by time and scarred by life,
    Little glasses on his balding head,
    If life is half the trip,
    Is he waiting for the destination?

  • Roads

    Roads don’t die, they just surrender

    To the contours of the earth

    Eating towns in their death throes

    Crumbling, fading, stealing mirth.

  • Kitten Dreams

    Kittens smile when you’re away,
    For an hour, or a day,
    Kitten know when things are wrong,
    When you’ve sung your final song,
    Sitting at your grave all day,
    Mad they didn’t get their way,
    Though they loved you, they are vicious,
    And you would have been delicious.

  • Ghosts and Rivers

    Ghosts in paper, spirit gears
    Poltergeists and drowning fears
    Always, sounds of ghastly rowing
    Feelings of aloneness growing
    Moving pictures, dead-still eyes
    As the last man lastly dies
