Totality
2:15
This sun is mostly full, though there is a slight nibble out the side

A bigger bite, almost Pacman shaped

The Snow Falls
No school today,
For the first time since December
It's been five months,
Almost half a year,
Yet the snow falls,
We ripped March off the calendar

It Doesn't Make Us Like You
It doesn't make us like you
The comments behind our backs

you like how it makes you feel to be loved
you like the gifts it gives you
and the glow in her eyes when she sees you

What Poets think about at midnight when they can’t find their AirPods
AirPods oh AirPods now where could you be?
On the table or stuck in a tree?
AirPods oh AirPods where art thou now?
When will you come around?
AirPods oh AirPods just show a whiff,

Aging
One,
tender, small hands
reaching for the bottle of milk,
the contents inside sloshing around.
Two,
dragging a faded stuffed bunny
around the kitchen’s island,
one… more… step…

No One Needs Your Sea
No one needs to hear your jokes,
Your remarks or your sneers,
No one needs to be pushed under
By the sea that you've filled
With the laughs that you've drawn
From ignorant thoughts,

Giving Back
Nature blessed us
Gave us a sun, water and air
Food, land and more
And so what did we give back?
We used the land given to us
