I’ll wonder to infinity
Were angels tending to me
As I learned to tell time
All the minutes of it
Goodbye
The Campaign
Hiding here
For ten years now
In fear or some similar thing
Built without my permission
Tried I did at logic-play
Slapped down
In favor of tastier aesthetics
The lure of shine
Of postured fun
Having now run its course
I stand behind it all
‘Twas true
Yet
You don’t know Me
I don’t know You
Spin-off: A Haikuu
He may say of me
I have her smile and her eyes
And know he has mine
The Ring
I imagine
Viscerally so
The blows would arrive
As if from the Andes
On albatross wings
Swift, strong, strategic
Were I to stand again
But I toss my hat
I await a bell
You will not hear
Answerer
I saw him as dallying
In the rain
‘though so what if he was
That little old soul
That curious soul
When what was it, Actually
‘cept pursuing The truth
The absolute truth
The noblest of things….
Earth’s Brew: A Haiku
My communal arms
Must reach deep, must pull life close
Through my ev’ry breath
A Firmament Away
Less beautiful
These days
You mustn’t fault me
For looking downward
And inward frequently
To reflect with abandon
On eternity
Without you
These days
Less beautiful
We Sleuth
Whether ink or lead
Or in aerosoled hue
I own thee, my friend
Placed my mark upon you
It’s your fault, inspirer
You’ve caused my daydream
Your borderless pages
From which you Love-scream
Never stop speaking
Such fanciful truth
I fight with you, write with you
Together we sleuth

Threshold
Hope and Damnation
Summer and Fall
Contrasts it seems
Perhaps
Do they not
Present themselves
On the same doorstep
After all
Red
Shadowy
Proof of light
Evidence of absence
Sharing Space: A Haiku
A strawberry pie
Set in the kitchen window
And enough for all
