You’re covering me
 with cat hair.
 My fine Sunday suit,
 for the Lord.


You know this.
 You must know this. It gives you, no doubt 
evil glee.

But you don’t care,
 You’re purring,
 stretching, scratching
 at my pants —


getting all the joy and comfort 
you can stand. Now that you’ve learned 
to sit here beside me.


As an evil cat should. No doubt, I’ll need an evil 
lint brush.

After all, What evil genius Is complete Without his cat.

“May your seas be wide enough for wonder, your harbor always waiting, and your light never fail when another soul is searching.” – The Lantern Keeper

Long poems are easy to write, hard to read.

Short poems are easy to read, hard to write.

Which is better Depends on which you are.

Writer, or Reader.

Lover, or Loved.

“May your seas be wide enough for wonder, your harbor always waiting, and your light never fail when another soul is searching.” – The Lantern Keeper

Look! These are just the fringes of his ways; Only a faint whisper has been heard of him!

Last night, as we crossed the threshold of dusk, a thunderhead rose— thirty thousand feet of sky-clad majesty, a colossus of cloud and light.

So vast, its motion looked still. It waited. A sentinel of vapor, crowned in flashes of unseen fire, looming above our journey like a god unspoken.

The world bent beneath its gaze— mountains bowed, cities dimmed, our destination cowered in its shadow.

Weight—more than all elephants ever conceived by earth— a Kilimanjaro of pachyderms, silent and unshakeable.

And yet, this was merely an afterthought— a side-glance of the Maker, Jehovah, whose breath begets fractals, whose fingers write tessellations in lightning and chemistry, in the tongue of physics and fire.

Who are we— dustlings in chariots of steel— that He should remember us?
