Family photos
written on faces
For better
And worse
Your grandfather’s eyes
Mother’s nose,
Your father’s hairline
(Sorry about that)
Living emulsion
Images of our predecessors
We see everyday
In the mirror

Main Character
Oh you know the score, the script, the line,
She’s a character, main one, in her story
Punch line, timing and verve
A tale of a homicidal mood, knife
He didn’t kill her,
(After all she was telling the thread),
And we know why –
“They never kill off the main character”
Just ask Kirk, Shatner.
Always the new guy,
With no history, name in lights
Fall guy for our star,
At least in her mind…

Bean
The bean is our friend
Java, joe, latte or espresso
To go or at home
Rich and jazzed
Or decaf and brown
Whole or ground
Flavored or straight
It always tastes great
