My Son

Storm blowing outside
JCB song on the car radio
Tears in my eyes
Sunshine in my heart


[31 Dec 2006]

Prostration

A curl of smoke
Forehead to the floor
Gratitude!


[31 Dec 2006]

Endings

I can’t sleep
I’m lonely
And I’m scared

Scared of what?

Death

After all
What else is there to fear?
Everything else you can breathe through

But death

Is when the breath stops

The end.
