A Different Kind of Fog

Kilauea has erupted on a nearby isle
Spewing forth lava in classic Pele-style

Tourists flock to see the sight
Choking on the fumes

They no longer flee in fright
Of encasement in liquid tombs

On Oahu, the Gathering Place,
Gas guzzlers add to the general haze

And so you see the warm fog in your face
Is smog-enhanced vog that's causing this daze

Been Too Long

It's been too long
Since I've pawed a song

Here
In the blogosphere

I think I've lost what little touch
I might've had once, though not much

One more month less a week
Till I feel your cheek

Fur to skin
We both win

Been way too long to be away
Wish instead of a visit I might stay

Auwe
