Unspoken

Rumbling and ugly, /

hot with unspoken hate, sky /

gray with tattered hope.

“Tracks”

Tracks

All travel alone /

Each in a boxcar of flesh /

Whistling goodbye.

Haiku and photo: “Legacy”

Legacy

Clouds and shadows painted /

With tints of winter sunlight. /

Bare limbs full of gray.
