At Ease
Red-winged blackbird
flies down, but chooses
to sit above the ground.
Holds on to a dried out stem.
Sways a little in the breeze.
Still seems to be at ease.

At Ease
I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.

Flight Pattern
Flight Pattern
You fall into a pattern.
Spread your wings and glide.
Slice through the air.
Tilt to take the turn
then return to autopilot.
Fly for miles, retracing
the circle so you end
where you begin again.
