Oh now come on
Who doesn’t want a
Super power to be
Able to do things
Others cannot the only
Difference between a super
Power and an abomination
Is a person’s desire
To have be do
Even if you’re born
That very special way

What about all those
Things that fall through
The cracks the undefined
The mislabeled misleading kinds
Those that lack conventions
The square pegs that
Will never fit into
Round holes where do
They all go when
Pedestals are reserved for
Heroes and not oddballs
I will tell you
One inch or five
Feet or miles upon
Miles upon miles off
Of your pointing finger
That’s where we go
Cricket
At last the crickets
I wish they’d slow
Wound much too tightly
Like a teenagers first
Sexual experience too fast
What’s needed is intimacy
The slowed heartbeat of
A sleeping lover the
Rolling surf of his
Shallow breathing absent of
The days deep sighs
But instead I hear
The chirp chirp chirp
Of now now now
Not sleep sleepy sleeping
You
But what is a
Grain of sand it’s
A pearl an irritation
A moment a beach
And an ocean it’s
Underfoot swept away overwhelmed
It disappears and reappears
But what is a
Grain of sand you
HeavensHarp
We get so mired
By life’s little details
That we so often
Miss the grand triumphs
That sounds unlikely right
When we look at
Life thread by thread
We miss the pattern
That our lives weave
We forget that we’re
But one strand one
String on this harp
In the heavens playing
A song that the
Universe can always hear
