Bleating taxi horns
muffled by feath’ry snowfall -
time for a gyro.

NOT FOR YOU
The first thing that I noticed was her dazzling damsel eyes
but heaven knows I’ve had a thing for freckles since age 5
her smile was up there too goodness knows it radiates
alas her brilliance shown like stars like diamonds in space
an outsider from realms unknown she came into my home
and left a mark upon my soul my heart my brain
Her throne.
Life has finally calmed down a bit so I should have more time for writing very soon. If you want to follow me I dabble in:
#poetry
#haiku
#microfiction
#shortstories
#middlegrade
#fantasy
From blind ocean depths
To blinding snow-whipped mountains
When two shoulders touch.

New city of Austin motto!
We’re dropping “keep Austin weird.“
Instead, we are trying out, “Austin: where the half-inch layer of ice protects your car when the tree branch falls on it during our annual once-a-century ice storm.“
The GOP cycle
-cut taxes or propose shifting the burden to the lower/middle class (“fair” tax)
-decrease revenue
-complain about rising debt
-cut social programs designed to help average Americans
-complain that government doesn’t work
Rinse, repeat.
