“O’ (un)holy Krampus Night”

O’ (un)holy Krampus Night.

There is a being named Krampus

Who this night comes for some of us.

Some of us will go

To where, we don’t know

But that will leave more gifts for the rest of us.

“Good eats”

Good eats

I’m nuts about here. /

Sunflower seeds are healthy, /

Help me scatter birds.

Again

Again it begins. /

Chemotherapy cocktail. /

“My eyelids sweat,” she said.

“Memory”

Memory

Last night’s rain lingers, /

each drop a short memory /

left on dying leaves.

“Rumples”

Rumples

Rumpled clouds, unmade /

head, autumn morning chirping, /

filled with tousled light.

No reservations

Perched along the roof. /

Awaiting seed arrival: /

No reservations.

Another year lapses /

Burdened with what might have beens: /

Tomorrow whispers.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Turning”

Turning

Winter sky reflects /

in glass and in clouds: wonder, /

pain, weather, and blue.

Winter evening hues /

dark into night.
