***BIO*** Michael Estabrook:  You’re not going to believe this but, I’m in my mid-fifties and just got my first tattoo! My beautiful daughter Robin, who has a tattoo of a shiny blue dolphin (on her upper thigh) encouraged me, “Come’ on Dad you have to do it!” So now there are two romantic red roses (drawn by my wife) nestled in a bed of green leaves perched on my left shoulder. My other beautiful daughter, Laura, is simply relieved I didn’t get a Mike-Loves-Patti tattoo. (I think Patti is too.)

one of those fluffy dogs with the thick curly tail
by Michael Estabrook
Fall is almost here
and as I drive over the overpass
before the big bend I notice
the train is pulling out of the station,
it’s big white light so bright lighting
up the tracks clearly for them to see.
At the bend in the road,
one of those fluffy dogs
with the thick curly tail is standing there,
simply standing in the road,
not looking at me or thinking
about me, not caring, so
I drive by on my way to work deciding
not to think much about him either.
