RAINBOWS

How sadly changed is

This thing once bright and festive!

The cat pukes ribbons.

ON PRIORITY BOARDING

We who don't travel

First class should feel like slightly

Less worthy humans.

ON A SPEEDING TRAIN

Under his breath, he

Mutters the words "screwing up"

And "amphetamines"

HARDBALL

The conclusion is

Inescapable. Greg Ball:

The man is a dick. 

NO VAMPIRES ON THIS TRAIN

Massive garlic breath

From a nearby passenger

At seven a.m.

MEMO TO THE TREES OF THE HUDSON VALLEY

The calendar says

It's spring! Please make a note to

Leaf up already.

BACK ON TERROR FIRMA

For a frisson of

Excitement on the commute,

Worry about death.

BACK FROM VACATION

This thing in the back

Of the refrigerator

May once have been food
