The Bell — 02-06-2020

a tiny ringing
heard from beneath warm blankets
dog wants out again.

The Knife — 02-07-2020

you pinch and pull sharp
underneath my bitter skin
showing no mercy.

COFFEE — 02-08-2020

Your bitter flavor
clears my mind of midnight dreams
and clingy cobwebs.

aching bitter joints
clash together bone scraping
as though no cushion.
