Is the self
“a mere bundle
of perceptions”
If Hume’s right,
are the rest of us
wrong
When stimuli exits,
do we then
disappear
Existence abeyant,
too weak
—to live on
(Villanova University Library: April, 2021)
Hollow & Silent
If a poem doesn’t live up
to its title
The moment is reclaimed
by time
Its chance to anoint
when read disappoints
A bell
—unable to chime
(The New Room: April, 2021)
Thank You Dr. Spock
Over parenting…
the child undone
A cardinal sin
—lost millennium
(Dreamsleep: April, 2021)
