Away from me
That writes my verse,
That sets me free….”

Standing at our door
Watching fallow deer graze,
Not needing man made
To amuse and amaze.

A hot day is on its way,
Doors closed against the heat,
I’ll just delay all my plans,
Keep calm, admit defeat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So often I stumble
over words
and need to catch myself
before I fall
and break something.

Exterminated by your human greed..”

There’s a knowledge starvation…”

“Why flies? Why me?
Aren’t there other attractions?
All I wanted was five minutes
Without any distractions….”
