I smile and share the last can of
tuna.
Geography is Knowing
Where You Are
Giving
up on trying
to decipher the map—
back home we have to chill the wine

How Romance Often
Works
A
knight
in rusting suit
of armor stands outside.
I’ve been there before, but crying
inside.
Selective Wishing
Full
moon,
a dog asleep
at my feet on the porch.
I hope tomorrow the moon is
still there.
Short Story
Two
cops
argue about
a rape case during lunch.
I witness the waitress make out
two checks.
