Sad

photo of the words 'kill yu' scratched onto the surface of a pink wall

Deep seething anger,
seeping through peeling old walls—
unhappy households.

Prey

Worshipping symbols;
donning statues in garlands—
doomed humanity.

Taking in the view

Climbing a mountain—
miles to go before I sleep,
but will stop and breathe.

Aspirations

a long full-length shadow of the author

A larger than life
giant looming over ants;
my shadow dreams big.

Routines

Mundanely mornings,
watching a cat look through cracks—
purring pondering.
