The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for June 2017


Four Fragments from the Future

i.

once again
     waiting

watching
through windows

planning inertia
walking through
each day's
events
to get to
the next


ii.

the
flight path
changes with
the seasonal
     stream

hello to
dreams
     good-bye
to the teams


iii.

rolling around in
these overheated mornings
searching for a
cooler spot
     and
sweeter dreams

the first
lawnmower on
the street
     the
grass still
wet
the bugs not
biting
     yet


iv.

and
as a substitute
for missing
everything
     i'd rather
sink

into the screen
than into the sea
