leave me alone on Christmas
December 8, 2006
Like in those glass-sided beehives,
the poor and dying press
against the window of my mind.

dogs of war

Dogs of war
trot through the streets
at dawn
nails tapping
on asphalt,
heads moving left to right.
With each turn of
each forsaken corner
their ranks swell…
since there is little food
and even less love
to go around
for dogs
who were once
tender pups.

The spoon is
a bulldozer –

I scrape for chips
of chocolate.
No one seems able
to stop me.
LuckyYou!
