One step, then the next
One bare heart will lead to two
Love’s weapons we use

This Haiku: ‘moon Gift
One long-stemmed, cut bloom
‘Tis not an adornment – no!
But for a grand hand
Simple Shoulders
How the simple, flowered smock,
with strings for the shoulders,
hanging now on the door,
picked up from the floor,
could become such something
when
I grazed the seeming nothing,
I’ll never know.
This Haiku: Walls
Too wet for my eyes
I…will drink long nonetheless
Yes I have no right
Light My Cigarette
I won’t date
But I wish to be dated
Date and time stamped on my very soul
The precise moments you tell me the future with loud eyes and quiet lips
The exact occasions my heart drops
As you hold open my door
Stand silent when I leave
Leap to your feet when I arrive
Offer me your coat
Light my cigarette
This Haiku: As one
I’m thrilled I’m ruined
Every ounce doomed to observe
All atoms ablaze
This Haiku: Where They Start
I’ll summon your smile
You’ll trace the truths on my feet
We’ll talk through trouble
This Haiku: My Superpower
Shhh…don’t repeat this
But I can see the future
And I am not scared
This Haiku: Fire For Today
Please place your hands here
But with surety, not rushed
Bring a burning fire
First Day of School, Planet Earth
careful eyes
casting eyes skyward
causes me to know
why i’m on this dirt
who is my first love
here upon this dirt
casting eyes to you
feeling i am felt
who is my great love
