day 2017 and a photo of Troy, 12-31-09

day 2017

today’s New Year’s Eve,

starting the celebration

cleaning the frog’s tank

day 2016 and a snowy night photo

day 2016
I see the distance
between two speeding autos,
the inherent trust

day 2015 and a random photo

day 2015
I pictured Rachel,
her expression, when he said,
“Mayor Tom Barrett”

day 2014 and Grandpa’s brandy cake

day 2014
Grandpa, ninety-three,
celebrated his birthday
this just-past Sunday

p.s.-Grandpa has had a shot of J. Bavet every night for years and years now.

day 2013

day 2013
back in from the cold
and I can feel the heat rush
back into my hands

day 2012

day 2012
busy snow-blowing
then interrupted by man
I can’t understand

day 2011

day 2011
perched around the edge
of the smokestack, gray pigeons,
shoulder-to-shoulder

day 2010 and Mitchell St. photo

day 2010
late in arriving,
received the precarious
“Lincoln Balcony”

and a photo from the Lopez Bakery–11th and Mitchell

sharing the wealth…

NEW photo-blog: “What Makes Milwaukee Special 2“

day 2009 and today’s random photo

day 2009
a little good news
today doesn’t fully ease
my troubled accounts
