Hunger strikes with claws
Burning holes beneath the skin
As tantalizing mem’ries arise
And lightning lasts forever
Hammer-head Sharks
Forty-six minutes
Turbulent times awaken nothing
Hammer-head sharks strike without reason
Obtuse
Floating over the horizon
Candle lanterns glow in synchronicity
Caverns of emptiness awaken sympathy
Flights of fancy bring joy
Wall Street
Frogs line the avenues as Dragons breath fire
And leprechauns taunt the greedy
Playing nine-pin or bocce ball
Outnumbered by Wall Street moguls
Mozart
Succulent servings of seaweed
Over a bed of rice noodles
While Mozart plays on the radio
Beards
Five o’clock shadow
Mist on petals of flowering plants
Dragon-fly wings in green soup
Tomatoes filled with tuna fish
