Not Deep

Insincere people
who live in north Virgina:
that's the shallow South.

Revolution?

Visiting Boston?
Heads up: the Revolution
Was a civil war.

Pulu

Strike the pulu hard!
Chase it down upon your horse,
O neo-Persian!

Five for Deliquency / In the D.C. Metro

His shirt displayed words.
Big letters: "Free hugs" it read.
On both front and back.

I followed this kid
up the old escalator.
I climbed to his step.

"How much are hugs, man?"
"Huh?" He blinked, confused. Then, snap!
"Oh! They're free! All right!"

We hugged each other,
less awkwardly than you'd think.
Temporary friends.

(This moment of life
Is proudly brought to you by
Cotton-poly blend.)

Curtain

As the curtain fell,
Marie picked up the flowers.
It was her last show.

Vikings

If vikings were here 
Would they promote credit cards? 
Or would they pillage?

Spaces

Outside of cities
There are spaces between things.
There's much more nothing.
