LITTLE NOTES
Three’s a big number
more than the eyes, legs, or feet
then there’s big digits
IT’S ALL RELATIVE
They say that birds are
descended from dinosaurs
do drones come from phones?
MYSTERIOUS MIND
When my eyes are closed
I think of things to write down
epiphanies, all
SPANKING ED
Learning curves can be
open palms used with great force
on your bare buttocks
COGNITION
Hello, I see you
are all the words you need
stand up, be counted
KEEPING UP
Punctuality
will set deadlines to address
matters big and small
TAUTOLOGY LOGIC
GONE BERSERK
“More perfect union”
has confusing meanings for
imperfect people
