Hunter
I am amazing
In hunter green sheath
I’d planned last summer
For New Year’s Eve
Silk against skin
Cut to the thigh
Your demure firework
Heels on high
Champagne celebration
It was to have been
We’d teach eachother
We’d dance again
Inky ring-fingers
Hilltop house near a glen
Belonging to each other
Forever by then
Linear Track
You should turn on your headlights and come drive ’round here
Get here fast, then cruise real slow
For this pavement may not be ready yet for such a soulful soul
Such intention and growl, bold and sweet, has long been absent from this street
May spinning wheels find linear track
Have a song playing loud in your heart, so the whole neighborhood knows
Your intentions
Whatever they may be
I’ve no wants or words of wisdom there, and you’ll do what you want, anyway
As you should, but I will say
You should turn on your headlights and come drive ’round here
Best You: A Haiku
Best you come harder
The Western Storm just don’t know
Say hello to This
Day’s Work
Summon the angels
Become as lightning
Cast a spell
Befriend the sulphur
Prepare for battle
Fall in love
Give your all
One thousand percent
Avoidant
The usefulness of tears
Like goodtime words
During midnight promises
Overrated, I promise
Necessary, nonetheless
When human tendency
Atom energy
And Universe certainty
Collide

Oaths and expletives
Solemnly, I curse His lips
On my life, I do
Single Torch
I took all the light in lieu
A select vessel
And with these, vanished to a sunnier place on high
I didn’t ask
Though it still pains me that no one put up a fight
There is more East now than ever before
Here, the Sunflowers turn their faces skyward
Earth and stars seem everywhere
The May-blooming Magnolia disappeared with me, too
Gracious, though
I left a single torch and White Tulips
For my shadow, who remains there, sometimes
What Wolf: A Haiku
Oh no, a liar!
Tall and clothed in compliments
Again, it seems, oh!
I left my lover girl, that busty girl, in Some Grand Place
The wind will not rest
