The cat and I sit
One room over, while you sleep.
Morning breaks sweetly.

Hospital Phone Call
Holding the wrong end
To her face, Mom’s voice muffled
In the long distance.
Albert’s Message
Email’s voice is cold,
Attaching Mom’s living will,
Bringing her death near.

Sad, ready to leave
This divinity of blue
To our everyday.

Dawn blessing Tahoe,
bringing Sunday morning view
into our window.

Divine saving grace
pouring its silver sliver
on water through the clouds.
Haters
Like rape after rape
Your attacks eviscerate.
You are death inside.
Godliness
Let me help, she said,
Pulling out self-righteousness
Like a shiny knife.
For Rich
At his sister’s wedding, Rich Cizauskas hugs Gene Cizauskas, their mother. Saturday, 12 October 2013. The Plumas House, Reno, Nevada. Photo by Thomas Cizauskas, another brother of the bride.
Angel light of love
Shines over mother and son.
Such sweet devotion.
Dream upon Waking
God had to escape
From the ivory tower
Chained in deathly heights.
Then he became I
Running to loved ones’ rescue,
House of cards toppling.
