Money spider

.

From the corner of 

my eye, I spied a spider

dangling from my hair.

Screen shot

 

Bright white stripes disrupt

flat screen technology; sun

peeping through the blinds.

Elusive

 

Just a fleeting glimpse;

hare’s legs and undulating

weasel teasing me.

Holiday snooze

.

With haste I succumb

to the draw of Morpheus

for a thousand winks.

Easy foraging

.

Squirrel at the door,

squats like a doe-eyed puppy

begging for some nuts.

Showers

 

August continues

where July left off, frontal

weather stream remains.

Holiday hours

 

So what time is this?

I growl at my daughter, who

rises after lunch.

State employment

 

Painting by numbers,

a perfunctory living

and passion stifled.

 

by Scooj

So tired

 

Sleep overwhelms and

in parallel burdens me;

jobs I have not done.

Caught in a rainstorm

 

A map of London

printed on the underside

of my umbrella;

incongruous reminder

of my original home.
