AWARD WINNING WORK


You’re busy. I’m busy. Who isn’t busy? Here’s my highlights reel. A quick snack if you don’t have time for the meal. If it’s not ideal to listen to my whole spiel-- then I should stop before this gets too long.

︎ Ode to Honorable Himbo
King of the cooler
He’s happy to provide
What he lacks in reasoning
He makes up in his stride
Any discreet worry
To him you should confide
“Fear not lass, they’ll catch these hands. I shall be outside.”

︎ Ode to Candid Clubber
Bottle blonde
Slumped against the bathroom stall
Call out all your struggles
She emerges with your call
With a rush of clarity
She doesn’t hesitate at all
“Precious, leave the lad, his staff sounds wretched small.”

︎ Ode to Solo Shuffler
Solitary dancer
All others seated in a lull
Carefree fancy footwork
Still he picks up your earful
He spins and dips
Then gives your arm a gentle pull
“Set down the wings my dear, lest ye want to hurl.”
