Mortar: Another Haiku

I swear to myself
I will fortify the gates
I swear this to god

Peacemakers: Another Haiku

Listen will you hear
Women with sing-song voices
Man that needs her so

Without the water
Will the world spin without me
Or will I set pace

I’ve offered my nape
My shoulder -and too, my hand
To He who is kind

As if an aura
Occludes all of the senses
And feeds a sad soul

Lost in the seconds
For there is a mystery
With whom I must dance

More prone to folly
There is none like her on Earth
I’ve cried out her name

Hoping he loved me
Chasing all the scraps of him
Just disgraced daybreak

The Story that is

And the courage to write It

Are not optional

Wish her upon you,
I do. For -how tall she stands!
How she makes you. Smile.
