Life is not a race, /
said the no-kneed man, smiling. /
There is no leg up.

Haiku to you Thursday (and cartoon): “Not a race”
Life is not a race, /
said the no-kneed man, smiling. /
There is no leg up.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Invasion”
Aliens arrived, /
bringing their wall with them. /
“KEEP OUT” their plaques charged.
Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “Muses”
Toast to the muses /
High and low, who grace the Earth /
With bread, wine, and song.
Photo finish Friday and haiku: “Tennessee”
The sign almost glowed,/
the word and the memories /
welded moments.
Haiku to you Thursday and photo: “Sign or Portent?”
“End Road Work,” sign says. /
Declaration or demand? /
Hanging to stir doubt?
Shrill tears
Guns clatter the ground. /
Clouds bulging with thoughts and prayers. /
Shrill tears from heaven.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Street trash”
Lottery tickets, /
phone sex ads, cigarette butts: /
fake pleasures turned trash.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Spackle”
Stars spackle the night, /
a sky of buttons and tears, /
render of the past. /

Haiku to you Thursday: “Pain”
Pain, that subtle beast, /
dances across memories, /
clutching time’s embrace.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Tea kettle”
Your image returns, /
a tea kettle’s whistle: /
loud, whiny, undone.
