Dreaming wakeful, alive
and holding you, clinging to
every last piece before
it slips away into the
unconsciousness.

Pandora (poem #309)
Boxes opened, shut
inside unknown mysteries
screeching and calling,
to open it, release the cries
a desire, a longing
to see what will happen.

Watcher (poem #308)
Eyes in the shadows gleam
watching the moving figures
come in and out of the building,
the sun blinding, waiting
for an opportunity.

The Road [poem #307]
Electric Kettle (poem #306)
Electric kettle sits
pale and full to the spout
with water. Insert prongs into
socket. Click button. Bubbles rumbling
toil, warm water churning.
A high pitched screech, a jet of steam.
