I spin the can
of mixed nuts
peering into its greasy
kaleidoscope –
not a cashew
to be found
only jordans,
filberts, and peas
tumbling
in my disdain.
They are all
that remain
of the feast.

two mountains reach down
cup the river in bedrock
eternal playmates

gather round the glow that is everywhere

small mansion
two warm voices
thanksgiving
dirt hut
two warm voices
thanksgiving
against a grey sky

a last leaf holds on
brown and brittle it shakes
losing small pieces
