Cigarette butts, beer cans
Revealed as the snow
Returns the sidewalk to feet
What is a sherku?
A subtle knife, a subtle
Knife, my kingdom for a
Subtle knife in my hand
The hardest thing
is the getting up
out of
the soft easy chair
walking to the hall
to reach for my
shirt and shorts
once that far
yesterday's lingering sweat
takes over
MASS Pike east bound, trooper
working car pulled over,
license plate read “lucky guy”
The leading ladies were
Unable to join the major
Game of Risk Brian won
Before chocolate fondue
the goal horn had their ears
covered in excitement
When the small clouds blow quickly
through the sky, shadows play
the breeze for all its worth
Cold enough that the frost
protected by the shade
sugar coated the green grass
It’s no wonder they call it
Lost if all the best cowboys
Have daddy issues
seven score and five years
later these hallowed grounds
still yield awesome stories
