Failure
Is their poetry /
in failure? Bleak winter sun /
pockets its promise.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Sprouted”
Sprouted
Having lost their leaves, /
the trees sprouted puffy clouds. /
Then the winds took those.

“Time”
Time
Now is elastic, /
Memory stretches then, /
Next shrinks away.

Ride
Worship the bullet /
And the fatted calf of death. /
Ride the idol gun.

“Eye”
Eye
Upward bound, birds /
fly through the gray winter sky, /
under an eye of blue.

“A sip”
A sip
Some cats sip at bowl.
Some cats are on hot tin roof.
Reflecting on thirst.

Don’t stop at the sign. /
Travel on beyond the wires. /
Your horizon waits.

Light as grace and stars.

“Gallon grief”
Gallon grief
Heartache, ice cream takes /
one gallon or two: cone, scoops, /
pain moves — heart to head.
