Police pepper spray.
Are my moves towards peace enough?
Forgive and embrace.

Two-thirty a.m.
Devastating fire calm now
Silent fallen snow
Pancake house shooting,
Air show crash killing dozens,
Grandma stomped to death,
Motorcycle gang
shoot-out inside casino,
Highest joblessness,
College girls’ bodies
Rotting in fields, judge shot,
Sewer fund gutted,
Corporate handout bonds,
Wildfire burning my city.
(time to leave Reno)
Not ready for love –
Why were you hiding from me?
Solitary bed.
Tents demolished and
Fahrenheit 451.
First amendment rights?
Refrigerator
Humming. Branches moving gray.
Angels just beyond.
Gray black closes in
Endless night, dreams of drowning
Mornings dark and cold
My heart is breaking
and my brother holds my hand
Transcendent beauty
Wondering if I’m
the only one who feels it
black orange, no stars
Sadness abounding
Letting go of fear, anger
Praying in Center
