POEMS WRITTEN DURING JANUARYS/JANUARIES


the incessant sound
from a dining room wall
traced to attic vent
(2010)
~ ~ ~ ~

snowman coffee mug
but no sign of snow so far
this January
(2012)
~ ~ ~ ~

"... not bitterly cold..."
15 degrees feeling 
bitter to me
(2001)
~ ~ ~ ~

kick-standing bike
still on the porch
house gone*

one payment shy
the fellowship hall
now gone*

the school scattered
beyond the wall
bearing its name**
(1999)
~ ~ ~ ~
* from Andrea Harter, AD-G
** from J. Slivka, AD-G
