Twitter Writings 1

-- piano lesson 
little boy sits 
with his six-shooters on

-- a store filled
with dusty, old books
no one wants to buy
a nice place if
it were a library

-- when you're dying
you keep trying
to stand up
then finally
you no longer
can

-- so bright
the sun today
burning my skin
as I sit by the window
waiting for my friend

-- so rude
my welcome home
caw of crows

-- because of cell phones,
women can now do
two of their favorite
activities at the same time:
shop and talk on the phone

-- clouds reflect
golden light of sunset
my rejoicing heart  

-- busy street corner
smells of exhaust fumes
and unwashed homeless man

-- think how you'd feel
if someone came
and bombed your fields,
your country
for ten years
like we did
in Vietnam

-- dressing for school
but inside my son's shoe
Gumby
