At museum school,
we learn how to stand
still.

A career in
what was, will be the
next thing.

Wear evolution like an
ugly holiday sweater,

nearby

copies of the tools of
the times carved from
obsidian,

with screens.

It’s ok if our thumbs
move.

Realism.

Interaction missed

And the next one
scheduled for 10.
What do we do with
our time then?

Staring, big roman numeral
clock at station center.

Baggy pants conductor
punching tickets.

Until the next scheduled
talk, cataloguing
metaphors.

Fortuitous calculus.
For every bird I held,
I’d find an additional
two in the cupboard.
Granted it wasn’t a bush
but providence adjusted.

Production was up,
one stone was
sufficient and
people were eating.
Then along came the
tango. Who knew
dancing, not eating,
was the goal.

if you try a beach picnic
you have a death wish!

Y'all It's REALLY hot here in Florida! Like fry an egg on the concrete hot!

Not African plains
But Florida has zebras
Floating swallowtails

***This beautiful specimen expired on my porch. I decided to memorialize them with some art.

What a stupid choice.

And then, a sudden chance
to rewind it.

So you grab the handle
and uncrank.

People walking backwards,
building ice cream cones
with licks. Dogs unbarking,
and the moon gets away
with it.

So much undone. What
a stupid choice.

So you grab the handle…

This day was unlike others.

Oh sure, it’s the same
sweaty grime and
clenched grimace.
Sunlight’s slap
still stings, and
your ears ring
like yesterday.

But tomorrow is
today’s trite reunion.

Hoary day,
glory day,
On display a
different way.
