The dial turns, then stops.
The dial turns, then stops.
The dial turns, then stops.
Then the latch clicks open.

Alarm Clock
A sharp ring
Pierces the silence.
Then it is quiet...
Until tomorrow.

Tortilla Chip
Perfectly circular
With small bumps;
A loud, salty crunch.
-
East Coast Salsa
A brief hot flash
That turns to water.
-
Grill
Glowing charcoal
In a blackened cage.
-
Shoe
A rubber sole
That doesn't smell very good...
-
Pen
A handless finger
Bleeding black.
