Pumpkin Mush

After four solid hours of the door bell ringing and “trick-or-treat”, Delores couldn’t think.  Her mind was full of pumpkin mush, as was her front yard, the path to the front door, and even on the roof of her car.

Pumpkin mush was everywhere.


It is time for a double Scotch on the rocks, Delores decided, turning off the porch light.

Mind Mined Out

Mind gone dry,
Mined too many times.

Rocks crumble
From inside the hill.

Nothing left to pick at
With an non-existent
Pick-axe.

Wind echoes
Through empty caverns,

Taking wisps of ideas
Leaving dry husks

In which

Only a throbbing sound
Is heard.

Abandoned.
