Out like a lion
(this damn month and the damn snow).
And no end in sight.

Flickering lightbulb
buzzes and pops, demanding
attention. (Later.)

Day ahead threatens
to explode and spin out–must
wrangle all the bits.

Am psyched for Women’s
World Cup soccer this summer —
I’ll be at some games!

Coffeeshop’s quiet —
two older men drink coffee,
eat bagels, talk books.

Poor dictionary–
its dot com cousin takes its
place for most word tasks.

Morning walk wildlife —
two, four, six, oh my, it’s nine
deer and one rabbit.

Went down to the lake —
it was sea-like with white caps;
two geese braved the chop.

Cursed the few snowflakes
that drifted down from the sky.
Scared them. They melted.

Still can’t believe it’s
winter effing wonderland —
need to get a grip.
