FAILED HAIKU
to start each day
transmission problems
the struggle
to start each day
far right
November breeze—
the pendulum swings
far right
melting ice memories of being more
in news of war
moving day
i wrap my dishes
in news of war
from a chicken farmer
walking on eggshells
a rented room
from a chicken farmer
and then a third
skipping stones–
a second thought
and then a third
than i’ve ever been
kintsugi
more complete
than i’ve ever been
carpenter ants
this home i’ve built
from hopes and dreams–
carpenter ants
MODERN HAIKU
i’ll never see
as the crow flies
all the streets
i’ll never see
PRUDENCE DISPATCH
for the collection
souvenir
a few new freckles
for the collection
TSURI DŌRŌ
on the rocks
tinsel at the bar
jingle bell
on the rocks
april breeze
one blossom
from a tree of thousands
april breeze
