Calendar

My cat doesn’t care
it’s the last day
of the year

She just wants
her food
wants outside

Time is subjective
Mayans irrelevant
Sunshine and a nap

and...(poems seem to be popping out today, muse is manic)

We are all Venusians

Maybe we’ll terraform Mars
because that’s what they did
when they destroyed
their planet
and vowed that life
would go on.

We Get Bigger

As we get older
our bellies grow

as do our memories
of things we did

of things we were
that we’ll never be again

Apple

January brings a
solitary apple
that clings in iridescence
to a lonely upper branch.

A desiccated beauty
And why only one?
Squirrels have not touched it
birds have left it be

Poison, profound or pious
I may never know
I’m reconciled to beauty alone
for only crows know truth

Something you Oort to Know

There’s a comet coming
It’ll be here soon
Sometime in November
And visible at noon

The biggest one yet
Come place your bet
Is it the end of the world
Or just awesome unfurled

I'll jump in on this. This one is taken from my recently self published I Leered at The Carnage, it is copyrighted.

Hole Head
He sat
And ate
I peered through the hole
In his head
Into his thoughts
Through his dreams
