050211A diverted attention
clouds sap my energy
looking trying to comfort
fleeting voices in sky
i should visit my pillow
early to re-arrange
these feathers mulching
i end up watching bulls
manhandled by hawks
where is mike, yes mike
he is playing golf now
people change with time
you might be left behind

On My To Do List
i'm pushing my feet
between mattress
it's becoming habit
yes it keeps it warm
there's a tear on skirt
neatly hidden sometime
those shield my shopping
activities and my secrets
what have you been hiding
is blocking another; layers
oh! i refuse to look today
that would be next year

Maybe I Wasn't Looking
i was with my daughter
at a graduation party
sitting at table six
i'm fascinated how
conversations transpired
talking about fashion
how to have round rear
was topic that lasted
up to dinner being serve
i look around if it's true
sure fabric's contour show
bottom's fleshomatic grow

AE01 i could be fish
i felt power of fish
when i touched one
it's all muscle, solid
swimming work out
wonder keep growing
breathing air-water
fins design to go forward
that could be for escaping
from bigger fish of going
against flow or riding current
amazing how they sleep
do they have dreams to keep

041111F not that easy
i see changing digital
above my old closet
seconds at top speed
it's also my tiny light
so i can move around
leaving golf balls in place
sometimes it keeps me
awake through sky castles
that i have to; to get up
cover it with paperback
but it won't be that easy
when you come to mind sk

042111G behind traffic
i saw husband and wife
asking for a simple job
from a restaurant owner
i guess they came from
somewhere poor country
i happen to pass them
i feel lucky i have work
they're not young folks
maybe older than i am
they should be enjoying
their retirement at beach
i hope they still love usa

AF01 do i have to notice
naughty hands has touch
my nest, re-arrange twigs
i laugh has sense of humor
likes words arrangement
left it alone; i don't mind
visited couple of times
others would say a devilish
for me a whisper from above
doing for shear fun, power
over things that's has value
to somebody hoarding :)

050611G yes, be nice now
garbage truck collecting
taking its usual round
must be end of week
tomorrow is golf day
if it doesn't rain again
afternoon is dinner time
we are overwhelm with
appointments everyday
sometimes not our doing
trying; socially acceptable
but where is real us or me
honey; wait 'til we get home

Everybody Wants Piece
we were practicing today
far different than plan
so many colliding ideas
was it really difficult
battle of wishing minds
one should give or bust
those loose ends flailing
so many fortune teller
claim wisdom of unknown
should somebody see light
i have concrete pattern
i'm going to execute soon

031510j...but Without You
every words
that came out today
came from my heart
i have some more left
to flirt with nature's wealth
to spell what love could be
to share sadness and joy
to picture events
to rejoice to victory
to cry for defeat
but without you
it's not fun assembling
these words to life
i rather go play golf
