Chilled
Uncomfortable
Itching and tired
Wishing
For silk against flannel
But why
Would you wish to know all that
You wouldn’t
Would you
What good would it do
You

LOVE
No heart involved
No
It is the skin
It is the thick and the tender
That the blind won’t abide
That the visionary won’t avoid
The rough and the soft
The sweat, the tears, the blood
Which ought run free
Which prove the day-in and day-out
To beautify that veneer
To strengthen the hearts involved
.
God
Pixel by pixel
Materialized
Before my eyes
All I hoped to see
Just Yes
But, all that was to be, it seems
Dispassionate condition
Rock Dove: A Haiku
Of this I’m certain
The birds are benevolent
They wish to thrill me
Worst Kindness
Words in blue and black
Shouting from the wall
Under the guise of favor
Each day… someday…
With one decision today
I took you down
And all my eyes hear now?
Rustling flora on dogwoods
Happy at the bird on their branches
Blue Flags: A Haiku
They tapped at my door
They wanted in from the wind
They hoped to heal me
Starship Human
When a hole so vast
All recollection of gravity be long lost
When atmosphere’s touch
When sudden flares of solar light
Startles so to trigger a hurricane
What red-stained firmament
Marks tears visible light years away
What evidence is there
What proof of life
Or hope for hereafter
Such Dust
There on a Sunday
Working
Putting your fingerprints everywhere
I hoped it was a labor of love
When you looked down at the sawdust
Quietly
I wish I’d bothered you and asked
Wednesday morning, now
May my late words catch up to you
You take that space
You make it
Like no other
You breathe new life here
I’ll stop in soon
Foreign Land
It was
Not rejection
We were
Not denied
He let me rest my misplaced head
Upon his ordered shoulder
We didn’t speak
And neither reached for more
Vegas: A Haiku
I’ve decided this
That lightning is a mere show
Who wrecks kids’ Ball games
