[nightrites]

the feet will not take you

nor the car

focus

on the light

it’s breath

and

exhalations

[nightrites]

Frank's office

After the storm

breaks

The well

Worn carpet

Sees us out

The sun still

Holding fast

You grab my hand

and guide us through

The dining crowd

[nightrites]

10 minutes

When?

and

here

another

10

slipped

through

that

windowpane

When Life Gives You Lemons

Sunday morning

Here

Comes the manager

Wife at heel

Barking to

His cell phone

[nightrites]

San Francisco twilight; taken from Ft. Baker at foot of Golden Gate Bridge.

[nightrites]

[nightrites]

What

Do they want

These roving creatures

With their

Shifting

Hungry

Eyes

[nightrites]

Nuzzling

With their wet noses

Licking perhaps

Demanding yet

Faithful

The words will not fail us

[nightrites]

New Year's sunset in San Francisco Sunset neighborhood

[nightrites]

Rain

Tapping me awake

Come

Wetten our tongues

[nightrites]

Sunset

The old people still

Walk here if you wake too late

For winter deadlines

[nightrites]

Beaver moon

Need a flashlight, do ya

Here's a look at all you've done

No sleep tonight dears

[nightrites]

[nightrites]

Morning

The trees

Stoic

Uncaring

Greet me

With open arms
