poetry and prose by stephen chute
Thursday, November 19, 2020
my arm around her
i put my arm
around her
as we cross the street.
i take
her hand.
she looks
at me.
i look away.
too soon, i think.
and let go,
release.
maybe tomorrow,
maybe
the next time,
maybe
some other day.
we shall see.

it has nothing to do with luck
we had some laughs
the beautiful child
that's a good thing
treading water
i fell asleep on the train
sleepy time yo
get the hell off my lawn
is it real love?
leaking toilets
alfredo sauce
and then there are other days
quit nagging me
you get three wishes
we want it now
purpose and passion
let's pretend
the amusement park ride
the barren field
let not a minute waste
we can still be friends, can't we?
the neighborhood network
no direction home
by george i think i've got it
best of friends
ready for the show
her empty plates
the complaint department
handle with care
sunshine and oranges
finding a new path
stirring the fire
i don't expect an answer
when i see snow
the absence and quiet
the curl of her toes
i can't eat another bite
shame it had to end
a shiny new pan to bake on
a new best friend
remember the time...
we won't be waiting long
leave it alone
the dark and the light
i can't be your friend anymore
pinching pennies
it's not too cold out
when dogs run free
don't wait for me
a cup with a hole
the palm reading
sharing the wealth
start here
your best image
it's early, i know, but kiss me
time to head home
the flower
at the end
as the day dies
i can't remember not knowing you
the blackbirds
what they will become
when Ingrid calls
the holiday stretch pants
the new room mate
not really friends
so off i go
in just a blink
more, please
the black horse
a house of noise
return to sender
adjusting
the first thanksgiving
party time
just her tree
Poem 3
there is crying, of course
he'll have to do
the white page
she's yours now
you sit in a chair
the missed calls
xmas prep
the black stapler
don't ghost me
and then it starts to rain
don't let the door slam
red white and very blue
five hail marys
apple martinis in bed
rinse and repeat
firing my doctor
you can't
to the bitter end
the senior book club
the cosmic dots
off my trolley
i'll drink to that my dear
the long ride to the city
