Little Pink Plastic Babies

Hi there, I wanted to share some poems from my second poetry collection with you. Enjoy!

Strange

And that was it.

He got up and grabbed

her tabby cat

and made for the door.

She grabbed a paring knife

and chased him

down the hallway

of her apartment building.

It was strange.

No one said anything.

It happened in near silence.

He ran with the cat. She chased him,

clutching a yellow-handled paring knife.

Change My Life

Woke up this morning

with the notion

that I was going

to change my life.

Got dressed

and went out for a run.

Got back home a mess.

My knee and back killing me.

Condoms Break

Cindy wanted

to call her baby girl

the Condom that Broke.

In the end, the baby

was named Courtney.

The Broken Bird Feeder

She wants it

and for that reason

I want it.

Houseplants

I wonder

what the

houseplants

think of me

and my wife.

Do they

like us?

Or, are they

silently

awaiting

their chance

to smother us

in our sleep?
