first sneeze
Kleenex box
stuck in bed

empty Kleenex box
all she wants
is her mother

bath time
my off-key singing
makes it fun

happily alone
a wooden spoon serves as
a microphone

top quarter champion

TOP half Chamption

bottom quarter champion

walking alone
her leather jacket squeaks
like a mouse

balance on
the sidewalk curb
wind between my fingers

crunch leaves
walking across campus
heavy bookbag

cold windy walk
to class
friends

TOP half champion

CHAMPION

BOTTOM half champion

blistering heat
a group pauses
beneath a shady tree

hopelessly lost
with closest friends
corn maze

mint in a windowsill
moved to block
the sun

windowsill
our mint grows
towards the sun

top quarter champion

BOTTOM half champion

bottom quarter champion

 
piano keys ripple against the lake

 
paddle drips into boat
         flinches

wishing well
trying to stop
remembering her
