New Shoes

I know a shoe inventor,
Named Maynard Allan Zippers.
He made some new shoes out of rope,
Maynard calls them skippers.
Then he made another pair
From banana peels--
Of course, they are his slippers.

lack of sleep hits hard
my brain is filled with cotton--
yet no work got done

even when you hide--
your light completely obscured--
i know you're still there

daily decisions--
my mind is crowded with them--
teaching seventh grade

early morning sun--
the glowing, red, molten ball
floats like a brick won't

an early morning
just before the sun rises--
pale moon in the west

small hole in the clouds
on a night dark as blindness--
punctured by starlight

long time, no see guys--
quiet days have all piled up--
inertia's a bitch
