Sacrifice
Vet of many wars
slumps on walk, blends through wall, lost
in this concrete (w)hole.
Thirst
Thirsty land drinks deep -
delicious drops of liquid
heaven dancing down.
The Fall
Amber, yellow, brown,
and red – bringer of beauty,
harbinger of death.
Dangerous Beauty
Myriad jewel-tone
lights of St. Louis in deepest
night – mesmerizing.
$ Olympics vs. China $
Men lose farms, gain homes;
starving at city shoreline,
they hunt trash and jobs.
Milk Carton
No black kids missing…
sweat from faded photo eye -
tears for lost living.
Future Sight
Thinking dangerous
thoughts of positive change, eyes
on the horizon.
