A scary Halloween for some.

I pressed the button
On the treadmill and began
Walking on the belt.

Exercise wasn’t
My personal forte, but
I took no chances.

My ulitmate fear
Was that my head would be way
Too fat for my mask.

dangling by a thread
words tumbling off the edge of
the blank autumn sky

Nothing rhymes with “orange”
So instead of a sonnet
I make it haiku

When I am afraid,
And you tell me “it’s okay,”
I always believe.

The smell of French Fries
still lingers in their absense.
Dieter betrayed.

On sunny, spring days
I long to be the cricket
not a working ant.

Grey’s Anatomy
cast changes consumes my thoughts
How will it happen?

giggling sun-burnt

faces glow from candlelight;

they drink “pirate” beer.

It’s not enough for
my villain to be evil;
I have to know why

Happy pooch with bone
He’s armed with lounge chair and shades
Perfect dog sitter.
