The Pursuit of Happiness
Happiness pursues me
But she is not my match.
I will always beat her
In this game of catch.
Timely Considerations
Help!!!
Time is killing me
One minute at a time
And nobody comes to my aid.
All manuals fail,
Parents aren’t here to kiss it better
Nine Lives
Look at the dead cat’s body
Sprawled on your neighborhood street
For ten minutes.
Look straight
Don’t blink.
What We Have
Just like we have everything,
We could have had nothing.
No natural law prescribes
Hot water in the tub,
Apples in the pantry,
Body cream and lotion.
