—
On but one sturdy, daring stem
…A purple cluster clings
Like grapes whose world turned upside down
…When vineyards had their flings.
Instead of hanging, grapes are stacked.
…We see they take the path
Of bringing pleasure to the eyes –
…Not as the grapes of wrath.

The Old Riddle
Which came first –
Earth-laying chicken,
Or the egg?
——————–
And Bunk Beds
Stacked turtles –
They like apartments:
High rises.
——————–
The Right One? The Photographer
It’s waiting –
A classic still life
For artist.
