Become
When I think of you /
today will always become /
the past.

“Happy Eve”
Happy Eve
Happy Triskaidekaphobia Eve
To all who practice and believe.
Beware now that sidewalk crack
For you may break your mother’s back.
You’ve probably already broken her heart,
With your non replies or answers smart.
So she has now visited upon you
This Friday day over which to stew.
The Ides of March did Caesar in,
His conspirators waited until the middle to begin.
But this Friday and this thirteen
Stabs without antagonist seen.
There is always one and up to three
To torment you, to not let you be.
So, gird your loins and be on your guard,
Lest you be hoisted by your own petard.

Dreams
Good night, Earth. /
I search with headlights /
for truthful dreams.

“Whisper”
Whisper
Bend now bare limbs /
burdened by the clouds passing, /
whispering of spring.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Room”
Room
This Earth /
with all its old tragedies /
still has room for me.

Monday morning writing joke: “Strut Your Stuff”
There once was a young writer in France,
Who for the New Year wanted to dance.
To get out of his rut,
Outside he did strut,
But forgot he was wearing no pants.

Hope
All hope has left is /
the first day of the year. /
Santa walks away.
