Watch Your Step
It's so easy to slip.
You might fall
back and get wet.
But, you could
hit your head, need
time to recover. So,
watch your step.
I won't be there
to catch you anymore.

Watch Your Step
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.

Sparkle
Sparkle
The sparkle
is enchanting,
crystalline.
Holds the eye
so the foot
steps where
it shouldn't.
Starts a slide
that may only
be stopped
by a fall
hard enough
to crack bone.
