Crescent moon ripples
On waters tinged with runoff
From adjacent roads

Headlights dot highways
Filament constellations
Reformed at red lights

Tire scraps lay littered
Unable to smother out
The cool breeze’s peace.

Revisions

Mad grammarian
Hunched over computer screens
Organic spellcheck

Air-Born

Rules dictate failure
Leaping, diving, flying free
Graceful defiance

Reading Up

Steel-built
Towering nobly
Masterpiece of metal
Collection of eight great stories
Hardcover.

Terraformed

Whisper.
Calming murmurs
Echo hushed gasps of awe
In resonant observation
Of art.

Oil paints
Guided subtly
Delicate formation
Bearing unseen worlds’ adventure—
Don’t touch.
