two poems

10/29/2021

 
These poems —posted to twitter on 29-Oct-2021— were intended originally more as tweets; however, since I deleted my Twitter accounts, I moved these here as they compare similarly to flash poems I write and occasionally share.

"slot car box-set"

i rolled out of bed;
inserted the batteries;

began playing
again

accelerating into curves;
trigger-squeezing a white knuckle
ride on buried rails down
digital cocaine
straightaways

on a track of ones & zeroes
in a world of perfect 10s

"town #15"

a barn roof of metal is pitched like a steeple, allowing ice, snow and dreams of better futures to fall

onto arid ground and into dry socket mouths struggling now to speak — and keep faith in prayer

were it that a teardrop could improve an acre,
I would fruit the county

    Hello. It's me, a simple scribbler independently writing and publishing, with a bit of information for site visitors. This page contains select free-to-read poems and flash fictions, or what I refer to as my Short Shorts.
    ​
    Some entries — certainly the impromptu poems — have been, are, and will likely continue to be ephemeral posts.


    Please respect the time and effort of the author and do not copy or disseminate this material without the express permission and consent of its creator. Thank you.


    NOTES

    With the exception perhaps of any impromptu poetry temporarily posted here, the date shown under title is merely the sharing date and is not the date of creation, which may be years earlier, as is reflected by applicable copyright dates.
