I live
On a little vintage street
In a little sunny home
With a little strapping kid
Where the biggest courage looms
For the biggest of ideals
At the biggest point in time
I live

June 25th: A Haiku
Today you told me
Don’t leave this moment, but dare
To withstand its fire
Thank you defender
I’ll not fall prey to despair
Nor be Tempest-Tossed
Nuclear Me
World in my hands
Flowers from my lips
Perfection for my footsteps
Strength on my wings
Hope-laden heart
Nuclear mind
Force to be reckoned
Isn’t this the truth
Under the Bridge: A Haiku
None blood between us
I dreamed last night my brother
Showed me tenderness
Alien: A Haiku
How is it that I
I who dwells in this frame be
Detained from a life

Ah! I’d forgotten
It’d started with a hello
Trouble always does
Shorebound
So I skipped school
Forsook homework for heartstrings
Hope and brawn would carry us through
I knew
In demoting me
Had you a point to prove
Was I your protégé
Gone astray
fantastic notion
Tell them the air was once here
Say it was sweet and sustained life
Speak of white atop the heights
Sing how its wisdom did provide
Cry not for deep springs run dry
Pray now for life and depth elsewhere
Legacy
All the truths
We wish would leave
The lack of regard
Despite all the reasons
We gave them to care
Let us walk forth
Shall we walk forth
And let legacy
And abandonment
Have its way with us
Muscle: A Haiku
When he reached across
To touch her muscle, her heart
He became a man
