i’m watching a man
watching a squirrel but who
is watching me now?

sirens (living in Baltimore city haiku)
sirens have a way
of wailing in an echo –
you gawk, you forget.
missing you on your birthday (haiku)
in yoga stillness
your birthday candles still smoke
drifts towards the heavens
sometimes it’s just what you think (haiku)
tenacious rush of
dried lips puckering and blood
drips below my nose
archaeologist in training (haiku)
she likes to dig through
trash cans; other peoples’ lives
in things tossed aside.
untitled ("black magic" haiku)
it seems i summoned
the devil and oh how he
gently holds my hand.
the future is just beyond the page (haiku)
visionary sees
nothing, a blank canvas. tell
more my prescient child —
please.
blessing of the hounds (fox hunt haiku)
hound dogs and bloody
marys. red riding coats verse
an elusive fox.
to the antiques roadshow — haiku
that basement dweller
dusty, all that time, all those
stories….spotlight waits.
green chair (haiku)
green chair you sit patient
with generations you speak
“i am always here”
[author’s note: my green chair is beyond a piece of furniture… it is a deep connection to the past and strangely enough, a friend]
