the ants are back_18/30
after a winter
of snooze
they busily send out
sorties to scout out
the land
of my kitchen
They congregate
in the pan
stacked upon another
the food hidden
from the one
revealed to the other
thanks to the ants
and me
I do not want
to kill these little bastards
so I sweep them off
as best I can
letting them fall
through the air
like bungee-jumpers
without the bungees
I feel a slight
twinge of guilt:
can we not co-exist?

A memory of a December
I

WONDER AT
THE LIGHTS ON
THE HUMONGOUS
PLASTIC TREE WITH
SHINY DECORS

Christmas Day, 2017
The presents are open, the tree is lit,
and we've emptied the giant red socks.
Yesterday's ham is reduced a bit,
but how can you tell if it came with hocks?
The shells are cracked and the filberts chewed
and the refrigerator is stoked.
Soon some more coffee will be brewed
and the woodstove embers lazily poked.
But best in show is that rare Christmas snow
Which fell this year in a civilized way,
and not in a vigorous subzero blow
that moves into town for a two month stay.
Second only to albinos out farming, ...

Last Christmas...
Those frilly little snowflakes
the melancholic cold winter breeze
fresh frosty freeze on your nose
No hot chocolate but some cakes
wish there was snow, to seize
the days of cold, cheeks that froze
Hand to hold, walk the holly
and then at night, feel the jolly
mistletoe, presents-a-plenty
How I wished
for a white Christmas this year,
no presents wrapped
none but a lone cheer,
no tree, and lights that sneer
as I drive past these festive streets.

soon another war
Soon another year
The festivities are not over yet our animals have yet to be scared as they are when bombs fall in Gaza like the dead white horse in the road because a primitive Israeli
soldier kills anything that moves, obeying orders
I was once a recruit, learned to present arms with heavy German rifles, left over from a real war, and they didn't give us bullets to fire.
A trained young soldier is dangerous he has been given an order (perhaps unsaid but implicated ) to shoot first and ask questions later.
One takes it, for this soldier's background hatred...

The One Without Chill
A peaceful train ride has always calmed my mind
Transporting me from a world infested with chaos and crime,
“A dark silent visitor I am to those on the naughty list
Fibromyalgia inflicted into service, because of a personal wish,
“Every day after the false birthday of Christ until the new year
My mission is to travel the world and make the most corrupted disappear,
“The type of corruption, large or small does not mean shit
Because those targeted will feel death’s kiss,
“Flesh unknowingly marked with the holiday...

Feeding the Birds on Christmas Day
Behold the feast on Christmas day.
An eclectic mix of feathered friends flock from their mysteriously unknown far aways.
Or those close by, drop in with their beaty hopeful watchful eyes.
An enigmatic warble as winter's hungry pang amplifies.
A fully stocked feeder and seed generously scattered in the patch of dank mulch beneath the tree.
The dark eyed junco arrives in threes, to merrily peck the decadent seed.
Coined as snowbirds. Tweets of contentment and excitement, thankful for the human that dispersed the Christmas festivities.

The deaths of Christmas
A child is born in Bethlehem without a sound
The wrath of God lies dead upon the ground
The power of forgiveness comes into the world
And breaks into small pieces all the bonds of old
And all the powers of hell must flee from the childs’ sight
Their powers of doom destroyed in this one night
The thunder and destruction upon unbelievers
Lies dead and gone because of our redeemer
For this his power, and his sacrifice
A song of love is rising towards the skies
Erased is love only for chosen few
A child is born, all the world to...
