Home

Racing the sun west,
Speeding and yet still losing
Trying to get home.

Hum

With each passing mile,
Driving away from the sun,
Exhaustion creeps in

Calculating

Square grid, nine by nine,
Central goal upheld by eight,
Might as well try it...

Dirt

Along the sidewalk,

Outside of the hospital,

We played construction.

Renewed

In my sleep I dreamt
the daydream I used to have...
Maybe it's a sign!

Peace

Tucked back in the woods,
I stare at quiet waters
No worry, no care.

Steady

Hold the Fly swatter
Walk slowly up to the wall,
And catch it off guard!
