Over honest toast
Concluded we are alright
And truthful coffee

She Of The Field
Her stripes will never be white-washed
Her rudbeckia sun
Will never be tilled under
Love!
What cheapness have you done?
Your patch of earth, a briar field
Tall thistle lines your way
When beauty comes to ask you
Dear!
What answer will you say?
Wasn’t The Woman

True Fiction: A Haiku
Through up-side-down eyes
Their learned smiles share this truth
We are all alone
Expectant
my Society
thought little of me
accept the breadcrumb trail
beg for a Holy Grail
return home empty handed
scraps to be demanded
now I know what’s true
honor is for me too
my heart the goldest medal
demands that I not settle
Зинаида
For the time
I held you in esteem
Woman
The empire shone
The Jewel in the East
None war
None pain
Ukraine

My prayer, my sisters
Protection regardless of our own plans
Our story’s not finished yet
May eyes filled with light
Hook and tether our hearts
And we will see who we are
Strong Back
I know a Tailor
From a mystical place
A gypsy, her eyes how they flash
We talk of those men
Those once-soulful men
How we fell to them
Full, resolute, unabashed
Messy hearts she and I
We examine history
And debate on the whether at all
Those men knew their truth
They did not we conclude
For they flew by their mood
Yet we stand here firm in soul’s call
This talk it’s served much
Our song it will be
We dance in the jeweled skirt of pain
The shades thrown open
She returns to her pins
And it seems we’ll begin
To walk whole into love yet again
