Two Very Short Pieces

<a name="#016">Summer Evening Images (Minnesota)</a>

Haunting cry of loon
at twilight.

Muskrat kits frolic
in shallows.

Moonlit waves dancing
lightly ashore.

Fireflies glowing
drift gently past.

Velvet black trees touch
Milky Way.

Windows glow yellow
from darkness.

Last time of the day
door closes.

Home.


KRC(1993)


<a name="#017">White on Blue</a>

Puffball clouds adorn
blue sky,
in patches ever dancing
on winds,
to distant wet reunions
of the fog,
as a passing or anticipated
thunder storm in life,
then abandon sky
eventually to blue,
without the sense
of having been a warning,
or an echo
of a fury that has passed.

KRC(2002)

Critiquing Critiques of Cliche`

<a name="#018">Critiquing Critiques of Cliche`</a>

It's the same ol' song and dance
writing chapter and verse
you sweat blood and tears,
and then it turns out
someone said it before.

It's the way the ball bounces
and for my two cents worth
it's God's honest truth,
if I've said it once
or a hundred times more.

Betting dollars to doughnuts
you're asking for trouble
is what they all say,
you've got to have heart
when it rains it will pour.

On the horns of dilemma
for no rhyme or reason
you'll trip on your tongue,
it's such a cliche
that it's bad to the core.

In the depths of the darkness
lone wolves in sheep's clothing
will hoist your petard,
once in a blue moon
they will show you the door.

KRC(2002)

"All thinks have been thought before,
all words have been said before.
Homer was the first plagiarist."
