each day i’m grateful
for 3 good things, but 90
bad leave me grumpy
I celebrate
A risen God and rabbit
Bearing chocolate
rabbits dance
through airport queues
relief unmasked
elsewhere lie bodies
bagged in national flags
and secret stats
as freedom's fake
takes flight and hell is loosed
another year of night
returns, unasked

grandma's house awaits
her hands rolling sweet pastries
the oven is cold
on the windowsill
wooden calendar blocks turn
time to dust
the postman
fills the porch with envelopes
a clock chimes
and stops

the self-absorbed i
admiring its reflection
in fairground mirrors
imagining
all other flesh and blood lies
in its long shadow
forgetting
who built the hall of mirrors
and the dark outside
