I don’t miss
all my lovers
those I do
kept a piece
of my heart
those I don’t
never had a
piece of it
to begin with
and never will

EarlyDenverSnow
A blizzard in October
it is unheard of
and I grew up
in the north Wisconsin
to be exact where
we know our snow
but here in Denver
we’re a mile higher
and I do suppose
that much closer to
angels when they molt
causing it to snow
here whereas lower down
others will see rain
thinking that its tears
when we here know
it’s a little piece
of Heaven this snow
brief as it is
Drifts
Sitting here with coffee
gazing at nights snowfall
I now hear the
growl of the snowplows
piling snow into corners
like security guards keeping
fans and morbid onlookers
from stars and accidents
and like I did
when I piled your
things at the door
after I found those
texts on your phone
Let’sBeLovers
The high temperature
in Denver today
won’t be above
freezing so let’s
you and I
stay right here
warm and snuggly
except to dash
into other rooms
to retrieve provisions
and scamper back
behaving just like
animals and birds
let us today
together forget about
being people and
instead silly lovers
TaxiCab
Remember those big
yellow taxi cabs
that lumbered around
the city streets
and when off-duty
their signs atop
told you so
I am one
of those having
after several years
left the apps
I no longer
wish to have
or carry around
strangers who selfishly
and without much
thought simply want
me to take
them from one
place to another
quickly and cheap
