Soup
 

After pouring a glass of sweet

iced tea from the pitcher

on the kitchen counter,

I dip my finger into the saucepan,

pour a bowl of tomato soup

over saltines, listen to the wind.

 
   
The Broom and I
 
   

Take me from the wall says

the broom

and sweep the devil away

as I have a mind too

that wanders foolishly

when idle, just leaning around.
