Waves

Ocean watching,

is fucking boring.

Humans come in go

some touch most lay around,

people watch.

Watching,

waiting to see if anyone else

will be the first.

Can see a few trying

and the ocean spitting

them back into the sand.

I’ve watched long enough,

I will make my own waves.

the day before yesterday

Planning for the future

with a hammer

and a couple nails.

It’s a joke

I know

but it’s the truth.

The nails are a bit rusted

felt like I should mention that.

Bent too.

Head to Home Depot

to have your card rejected

but find a two by four

on the way home.

 

Buddy said she had

some parts for me,

pity screw.

Looking up already,

call it a note worthy day.

Cynicism 

I envy your outlook.

Just desserts smile

on a top of a cherry, 

It’s worth a million photos

and all I want is one. 

Peeking into an empty

lot and seeing the world

and I know it’s just time

to pull the weeds. 

I had your eyes once, 

I’ll remind you

to never change them.

Blackeyed Susan

I’m not quite sure

who I am.

The login to everything is the same

the books I read are still in place

the places I have been, plain.

The petals around the bud

shine bright

but they wilt away

as the sun abandons.

The simple resolution

would be to move and align

once again

with the sun.

If it was only

that simple.
