Dark Joy
My joy is dark /
With wings embracing the night /
Bounded by duty.

Haiku and photo: “Light”
Light
Before the windows /
Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /
Empty and yet full.

Haiku and photo: “Box carred in”
Box carred in.
Freight train before me. /
White car blocking my behind. /
Road to nowhere now.

Poetry and photo: “Lichen”
Lichen
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Lichen covered here and there. /
Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /
Decay is Time’s only care. /
Taking down the now — /
Leaving pieces that we share. /
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Leading onward, lichen dare.

Haiku and photo: “Tracks”
Tracks
All travel alone /
Each in a box car of flesh /
Whistling goodbye.

Objects in mirror /
May be further from your reach /
Than the distance back.
