SOLVE implied problems yourselves, Romans!
ALBUM, white canvas for the news that will

Beach, littered with dreams and dross
Summer Day
CLINKing tumblered picnic basket,
BEACH beckoning, day spreading out,
BEVEL of sand down to water’s edge
ELFIN summer moment: creation rests.
Construction worker on vacation
CLINK, the seashells fall into the jar,
BEACH toys and Coronas replace
BEVEL and cooler water on this
ELFIN getaway with the kids.

Maybe a cook book set in a sassy, SAUCY

SWORD in my forehead–it
REFERs me to Romans and creation’s groans, the
GUILD of sinus sufferers and I joining in. In the new heavens,
NASAL passages will not block.
