short forms 8th July 2017

no rest
for the wicked
spirits of lost children
rising from a watery grave.

tomato plants
growing tall and bushy
My father's varieties

washing machine
running on spin cycle
vibrates the floor
nearby, the cat
swats a blind dog

collecting seeds
from yellow poppies
in a ziploc bag

I empty seed heads
thirty or forty
visions of seedling

there's no bottom on the bag
