Summer's last night

the carousel slows
& the lights & laughter fade
into summer night

braced by metal canes

braced by metal canes
a young man climbs the stairwell
seeking no pity

what would you find there

what would you find there
were you brave enough to step
into the unknown?

lifeless grasshopper

lifeless grasshopper
laid to rest on concrete steps
far away from home

Wrong, Dr. Hawking

Wrong, Dr. Hawking:
Physics can’t disprove a God
Whom it can’t define

Black holes

If black holes stop time
How I'd like to visit one
Lose my shoes and rest

Nature, too, rebels

Nature, too, rebels
lashing out in blackened wind
twisting life to death
