Being green we use
fabric bags old boxes to
wrap gifts. No trees die.
Photos we look bad
in. Braggy newsletter. That’s
how we keep in touch.
You don’t notice the
absence of sound until you
strain to hear something.
Expected to know
all the dishes, servers eat
the entire menu.
At the interview
J’s hired on the spot, full of
new employee glee.
Panera’s didn’t

Formally over
twelve years of learning to look
good on this one night.
Cap, gown, diploma,

Undercooked pancakes,
misspelled cards, weeds for flowers.
Love makes them perfect.
In it she was arm
candy, someone that turned heads

from where? What will have brought you
here – mere chance or choice?
Rake leaves left over
from fall. Clean porch furniture.
Spring into action.
A schoolteacher in
a barrel did what no man
could – lived to tell it.
An unexpected
crocus emerges, smiling
from a brown leaf pile.
From a Revealing
start to this auspicious point -
my life in short form.
