she’s the one with the comb and scissors
the fruit of my womb
for her thirteenth birthday
she wanted a rented limousine
six hours, unlimited mileage, to sashay
through the Mystery Cafe “where murder
is always on the menu” but even then
adjusting our calendars was the killer
maybe I’d appreciate the suggested list
to just pull the trigger
against Mother Nature and Aging
what I was fit to tap out this evening
please stay tuned or advise with directions
crazy for lovers
Adam and Eve at puberty, separated by a large apple
a red candle-lit cloud kiosk on Copley Square in Boston
let you peruse the
apple perched on a suspended steamer trunk
a map of European geology free of political borders
