Autocorrect’s cruel
Embarrassing word choices
Is it self-aware?
With its malicious intent
Man shown as inferior
poetry, prose, and photography
No longer
Do I listen deeply
Pulling apart
Words, lyrics
Melody
Harmony
Trying so hard
To embrace
A song’s
Soul
As the firefly
Moves across
The darkness
Leaving a trail…
Moments fleeting
Into memory
Then mist’s winds
Drag them
Beyond the treetops
Up to the stars
Oh teriyaki!
Your sweet, delightful flavor
So many choices
Within the hard rain
Atop steel tree; watching
A hawk sits, hungry
Sun set a while ago
Darkness fills the air
Comforting: I find it so
Freed from sunlight’s care
Roof rattles
Grinding force
Flowing earthwards
Each droplet unites
Living planet’s power
All consuming
