Selections taken from "Poems Under the Sun," A collection of original poems

Cat Box

The vile of time decays,

Emits the radiation of spent days,

Triggers poisonous cogitations,

Unmet expectations of grandiose plans.

They observe nothing,

Both alive and dead,

A macabre science of dread

Hypothesizes possibilities in your head,

Conducts experiments,

Checks the numbers,

The answer is elusive,

Crawling off it slumbers.

You try to measure a position

But you’re uncertain of a path,

There is a Goldilocks condition,

If you could only do the math.

O! The many worlds where we reside:

In some we’re known, in some we hide.
