The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Empty suits and shoes suspended beneath balloons.

An assembly of windbags,
of airheads indeed,
spineless and empty,
they’re mastered by greed.

Absolute nothing can fill their shoes,
send them off somewhere,
Alaska has need
of all that hot air.
