Poems
May 2020
Family reunion
These horrible grinning things
Some how---
they know me.
They come closer to invade my space
without warning
with loaded handshake and contagious kiss
I have no camouflage
I'm a bird caked statue
I'm a deer paralyzed in the headlights.
Maybe---
like my gently rotting teeth
if I ignore them
eventually, they'll go away.
