hide my phone
i have to stay
away from the phone when
i've had
a few martinis.
god knows who
i might call, or text.
the typewriter too.
get the pen out of my hand.
i can only say stupid
things
i'll regret in the morning
when i'm half in the bag
and feeling lonely.

nothing is lost
the velvet box
neither were true
half past seven
i'm ready now
another new game to try
another new drink
burrowed in cool
a lower power
no longer living in the now
her steamy long showers
the oncoming train
send a fruit basket
pickle ball
the necessary mistakes
taking a bag to the curb
so bright, so bright
still missing
reading the room
her green martini
the honey pot
all things made whole
before the first sin
the gypsy souls
just float
a long slow yawn
what's their problem
with nothing to add
his confession
not a single cloud in the sky
there it is
back to the dark ages
so many nice people
no animals were slaughtered
the reliable brain
the stubborn door
old love
it's a jungle in here
the day of the gypsy
a day in the city
mighty mouse in a sarong
stay out late
millennials, oh my
perfectionism
a wedge of lime?
the traffic jam
no visible bruise
who's in charge here?
a perfect bake
the drama of others
a radius of two miles
a few red flags were apparent
thin sliced baloney
out to lunch
don't delete me
taking less
word salad
pages unturned
to you, in late spring
no magic
whatever you do, don't pull my hair
use your nails
when the night was young
the long black coat
taking a walk
now is the past
a dying breed
baking love
what bends me towards her
so close at hand
there is another world
take it to bed with you
on your way out, close the door
what goes around
painted black
ambient noise
another chance
a hand or two away
juggling
and draw blood
what lies within
stranger at the door
sea jewels
expirations are for the weak
thirty years
it wasn't overnight
two paths
three ways to sunday
irma la douce
a good run
the wind
just say no
where are they now
warm muffins
getting smarter
mediation
crickets
whatever i find
the beep beep beep
making that vroom sound
