naked shame
Giver of death
Nourishment, corruption
both imparted
Sap sucked dry
by unloving lips
Flesh now decaying
brown and soft
Discarded seeds
trampled underfoot
RUSH HOUR
thinking itself in the center
of the atom, the
electron dashes about,
narrowly avoiding collision
with protons, neutrons,
other electrons,
as it rushes from here
to there
along random paths
A TO Z
Baby lies on the carpet
A mere year older brother
Pokes at baby's fair-skinned side
With the crown of his bald head
Rolling diapered child over
Wildly tumbling together
Baby-laughs surrounding them
