POEMS WRITTEN SINCE LAST WE MET
June 22:
HOW CAN THAT BE?
Three bombed
facilities
considered by Admin
a de-escalation? How can
that be?
COFFEE BREAK
Leaving
the office with
one mug, returning with a
a different one. Why? Why not? We
take turns.
HEAT ADVISORY
Second
day of summer,
a massive heat wave engulfs
the Midwest & Central Plains. Temps?
90s.

SENIOR MOMENT
Leaving
the printer on
overnight after print-
Ing a PRA monthly “Fall”
poem.
July 4
WORKING OUTSIDE
Fatigue
gives me much more
patience with the ever-
slow computer to bring up my
emails.
July 9
89th birthday
smoothing the tissue
adorning her gifts
(senryu)
July 11
GOOD INTENTIONS
Vowing
to weed-eat this
morning before it got
too hot. Alas! When I awoke?
Too hot!
July 12
TRUTH OR SCARE?
“Heavy
Rain” the task bar
claims. But from the window,
no indication. Perhaps while
I nap.
