garlic

an old wives' tale

in the tenor's breath

~Robert Witmer



jasmine soap...

grandma scrubs

her water buffalo

~Vibha Malhotra


 

the seed she planted his idea

~Kelly Moyer


 

big bang god should have called the gas company

~Jim Krotzman


 

winter sun mangoes from elsewhere

~Kelly Moyer



pondering his fate

the turkey and I …

he pardons me

~Bonnie J Scherer



    


the aurora borealis

of her eyes

where low tide used to be

~Jim Krotzman

 

 

family planning

we adopt

a more precise vocabulary

Loaded on coffee

beans and lattes,

he fractures his fiction,

shards puncture his lies.

A policeman pulls him over

for alphabet pollution

and no license to fly.

costs

runneth over

the world's cup

~Robert Witmer



shifting shadows...

the long, lonely walk

to the outdoor toilet

~Vibha Malhotra



Pack a big bag


and forward mail

for this guilt trip.

You’ll be gone

for the rest

of your life.

~Nolcha Fox
