A good snapshot stops a moment from running away.
~Eudora Welty


By the time I catch up to the moment, it's already run away.

with a little patience
and some hot water
I manage
to shower away
today's disappointments

the limbs of a willow
never swaying toward
any goal
beyond their reflections
touching the water

this morning's message
about getting myself organized
lost somewhere between
the light and dark keys
of piano blinds

opportunity isn't
the only thing that knocks
every summer
a few more dents
in the mailbox

just like my son
tuning the world out
a ceramic owl
with a pair of ear buds
strapped around its neck

toy story sequel
someone's baby
lets out a wail
far louder than any 
of barbie's cries

another jump
in temperature
the rabbit stays put
in clover shaded by
the air conditioning unit

not as appealing
as deer standing
in the meadow
yet surely skunks must be 
endearing to each other

losing sight of the ball
after it's been hit
instead I catch the moon
above the lights
of a billboard
