tongues on hire

bears and monkeys
can’t for heavens speak
they do in fables to escape the bees 

drama

drama

between yes and no in and out 
lamb meek and lion proud 
playing hide and seek 

no bar

Hatred is the salt in

age-old dispute between
litote and hyperbole

chain of words in little sequence
food, water, air in absence
circle not tense

piano tree

poem in the piano tree
me in doubt
it sings do re me 

wander

Poet a prophet creatures 
wander or the
puppets surrender 

chirping tree

Tree chirps cells inside
sing city bombs veins sigh
shout in debris

need to know

need to know

information likes air,
blood, water; when it flows, grows
blocks, clots, corrupts
