WFH


grabbing
every stolen moment
back
from the jaws of work
forcing making memories
rescuing pearls of time
thrown before swine

the must feed
that money beast;
world rolls on
cold to our plight

but for these days
we will be part-time pirates
heisting
the laugher of our children
we will be outlaw poets
breaking free
from the grindstone

Couch Song Armory



We have our own song
for when the whole family
fits on the couch

a glad song
carves memory
forges mental ammunition
and bulletproof souls
to last
in the savage lands
beyond our living room

so here
among our cluttered life
we run a musical boot camp
for the woman soldiers
of tomorrow
