a tiny version of me
in the freezer

owl
on the lookout
for dragons

a baby leech
on my ankle

lightning can strike twice —
the second wife
also a psychopath

to be lost and to find
your own footprints

psychedelic moon landing
I fantasize...
all of those small steps
we never took
~Joana Figueiredo
lost deeper
in the static blackness
we stare
at the turned off TV; we are
nothing more than
shadow silhouettes; trapped
on bare screens

who i was
i am not
who i am
i will not be

stillborn citizen
A festoon stands
By a galloping train
In rain.
Sees the clock time-
A poem without rhyme.
And taunts the citizen.
Does the festoon know why?
