The Unexpected VisitorThe tapping on the window was persistent, and slowly, Harry opened one yellow eye and peered outside the shop window. A goofy looking kid with bucked teeth and braces was mouthing something at the glass, flourishing his hands hysterically and pointing to the door. The sign read, "Closed" Yes, and what do you expect me to do about it? Harry thought, with annoyance, I'm just a cat that is constantly being woken from his sixth nap of the day to the stares of some awkward preteen. Yes, I am real; I simply enjoy sleeping in a window where the sun warms my back just right. The kid continued to wave his arms and point to the sign, determThe Unexpected Visitor

DrowningThe waves are especially high today, and they make for great playmates as we attempt a game of leap frog.Drowning
Our laughter distracts us- as our new friends jump further, and further away from the safety of shore.
These are pretend friends, the hooks that lure you
into their safety net with a treat and never let go.
The current sucks us under, grabs hold of our ankles;

Hey StrangerMy first job at CVS/Pharmacy introduced me to a plethora of interesting characters, to say the least, but none have had the staying power of this old stranger. It wasn’t a particularly busy night in the photo lab; I was standing in the corner, hands digging into the pockets of my white lab coat, praying silently that that the next customer would not demand a packet of cigarettes in that raspy voice smokers have. Then our automatic doors slid open, and the old man walked in, whistling some kind of cheerful ditty, carrying a manila folder in his left hand. He walked over to the kiosk, looking confused, until he saw mHey Stranger

SavedThe regret taps each vertebra Like the deliberate notes of the xylophone, Each note a distinct voice, Each one higher than the last, None are pleasant.Saved
Your voice is ringing in my ears,
Oxygen is crushing my lungs. Salty tears burn my cheeks, And those baby blues still haunt me, Even as my eyes are swollen shut.
But when I finally collapse,

Separation of Church and StateAs time and place Define the human race And we let pure knowledge Go to wasteSeparation of Church and State
As time ticks by I cannot define To whom the man Draw the line
How long must we wait Before there really is such a thing as Separation of Chruch and state
Ideas are read In black and white Understood In mornings light
As the new day starts People wonder why Some restrictions exist Before the inks ever dry
How long must we wait Before there really is such a thing as Separation of Chruch and state?
