shadowed moon
covers
her dead soul

no moonlight or sun
gloom takes over
my body

that familiar sparkle
in your eyes
faded

crowded basement
crouched in the corner
sick girl

top quarter champion

top half champion

bottom quarter champion

graveyard newcomers
one hundred years
from now

sun-baked gravestone
a drop of sake
evaporates

lifeless puppy
in the ground
she romped on

running in the park
I see the dog
racing me

top half champion

champion

bottom half champion

cars zoom by
as I wait
for my taxi

Did it hurt?
The accident that
messed up your face.

un-grantable wish
blowing dandelion seeds
against the wind

fading leaves
the ground freezes
in time

top quarter champion

bottom half champion

bottom quarter champion

rusty medal
of St. Michael
cop funeral

her husband’s funeral
crying quietly,
alone

tangled sheets
wakes up at noon
swollen lips

arrows
pierce my heart
not Cupid’s
