Meet You There

Man,
Phone to ear,
Eyes searching street.

Tenderly,
“Oh, I see you.”
And an awkward laugh,
Because she’s on the phone
And in sight
And he’s in love
Twice
At the same time.

The girl
In the polka dot dress
In The Paperback Bookshop
Doesn’t know 

She’s a poem.

Comforting

The arm rest
In the middle of the park bench
Is provided for your comfort,
So you don’t have to see
Poor people
Sleeping.

Peer Group Pressure

The purple
Gaseous life form
Infant
Playing with your universe
On his phone
Just raised
The difficulty level.

Tomorrow
He turns two hundred and seventy,
His first day of school,
And he wants
To impress.

Ko-Fi

Never

Saturday morning and
Couch and
Coco Pops and
Cartoons and
Adults go away, and
Adults go away.

And never having
To work for bastards and
She
Never died and

adults go away, and
adults go away.

Women wearing winter
Coats,
Black,
Pulling fallen palm fronds
From
St. Kilda beach
Back to the office
For a photo shoot.
