A Radiant Neighbor
Kim commandeers hallway sockets in her high-rise with a microwave to reduce her electric bills: frozen dinners cooked outside her apartment. An icy day clouds the sun seen through a window of the building. Kim's smile captures the sun racing across the sky to crack its disc on her face, her chin and cheeks, a cheese-melted heart....

The Fence
The sun is high More joy is nigh I cannot lie Why should I sigh But the neighbor’s fence We are friends We see each other’s ends We have the same trends We each help when the other bends Why is there a fence We will throw each other the ball So why is there a wall We help each other when there is a call It isn’t...

For there is no God to find, for God hath not know the hand of time. No righteous path exists, only staying present in the mind. Will ground...

Premium Member Division Of Neighbor
‘Hey stomach,’ says anus, ‘Would you cut the crap.’ “It’s not me,’ stomach says; ‘I won’t take the wrap. It’s what they’re eating, So blame teeth and mouth. I’m innocent,’ says stomach, ‘For that filth down south.’ Brain has a good laugh At organ expenses, By prodding infighting Over false offenses. ‘Are you kidding me, You two dumb kidneys. Always a teamed pair For a fight that’s not fair!’ Roared livid...
