in bloom…
the scent of light
of
your hand cream

the painter carefully rounds
a

majestic moon
growing from the silence
plum

I watch a candle
warm itself
on my wall
I want that passion
in
the yellow haze
Sharon Ferrante
I always
tell the truth—
it was me
who threw Jupiter
her
little moons
Sharon Ferrante
I wonder
if I leave my cloak
in your cold forest
will it take away
your
shiver?

flu season . . .
the hypochondriac
senses demise
in a single sneeze
that
could wake the dead

a big smile. . .
hiding the wrinkles
in
my confidence

ear doctor
surely the whole office hears
my
diagnosis

the American dream an American gun
