On seeing a snake
a sudden swerve
and coiling curl
that slinking snake
so slight and sleek
so sly and sneaky
in shiny colored skin
she slithered back
then uncoiled
and swiftly slid away. . . .
1993

Time tells
ten times never
days have flown away
an ordinary promise
standing in the fray
turning pages
of my simple book
wishing some way
i didn't have to look
telling people
what they want to hear
knowing always
i'll only disappear
standing darkly
just inside the shade
knowing always
everything will fade
just a minute
and i'll be gone away
nothing matters
everything's passe
1995
