He’s out the back fence
Not really runaway he’s
Just following scents

In the Morning Light
The red berries bright
Aglow in the morning light
Belie poison’s fright

Always Planned
Contemplating absence…

Five Seven Five
Damn! My head won’t stop
Thinkin’ ’bout five seven five
Will it ever stop?

Always planned sometimes they just
Find me all caught up

Contemplating being gone too long…
Please share…
And Biding
Contemplating time…
And Biding
Sitting by the heat
Rubbing my hands together
Flexing frozen feet
Pondering the time
And biding it as well I
Find moments sublime

Of the Way
Contemplating life…
Of the Way
Fate grudgingly gives
Each hard fought step of the way
It is what it is
