Heat Lightning by Dave McCaul
Someone must be taking photographs outsideUnable to sleep, I part the curtains of my bedroom window
But my backyard is empty—no photographers lurking in the bushes I gaze skyward and see that the culprits are up above, air-borne
An overeager paparazzi, their flash bulbs popping in quick successionHeavenly bodies, dressed up for an all-night party, mug for the camera
Networks of lightning bring disparate gatherings togetherSolar particles bump into one another like people on a crowded dance floor The thunderstorm is a strobe light
flashing on my bedroom wall Distant music I cannot hear
keeps the party-goers moving In my pajamas, I am like a rude guest, sloppily dressed
Hair mussed with static electricity, eyes dark-circled and tired No sleeping tonight—this party isn't over until dawn.

'Twas Friday morn when we set sail, And we had not got far from land,
When the Captain, he spied a lovely mermaid, With a comb and a glass in her hand.
Oh the ocean waves may roll,
And the stormy winds may blow, While we poor sailors go skipping aloft
And the land lubbers lay down below, below, below And the land lubbers lay down below.

And a jolly old Captain was he; "I have a wife in Salem town,
But tonight a widow she will be."- from “The Mermaid”

Better Batterby c.safos
In between the beats and whirs,the cake mixer twists its metal links
like the spin of a couple dancing.
I can smell the melted butter.It smells like a carnival.
The mixing bowl is where sweet teeth go.
The batter is thick.As it's poured, it clouds and clumps over
on itself like pillow lava.
If the batter were a dream,it would take only an instant to bake.
The billowing scent would balloon
until the morning chimes,clanging and clinking and ringing until
the cake is as full as the sun and twice as yellow.
