visitors
from the galactic core
first time seeing darkness

The coolest thing about it
all the kids agreed
was the explosion
when the moons collided
of course it was sad
when the miners died
but at least  they went out
with a bang

091818

memorizing
a new credit-card number
old card under seat

091718b

on cabbage world
brussels sprouts are called hobbits
their brains are small

091718

like a giraffe
its head lowered to meet my eye
a saucer blinked
"Are you the leader?" it asked

Jerusalem
artichokes like sunflowers
waiting for the frost

091618c

a new planet

exactly like Earth

but the size of Jupiter

60-yard beans

tomato to feed a city

weeds blot out the sun

and oh, the women!
