Overwhelmed rivers
Tend to drown, bury, destroy
Vessels may not hold
haiku
Haiku for Cannibalistic Protégés
Stay focused, set goals
Seek mentor to emulate
We are what we eat
Haiku for the Dream That Starred a Basset Hound
Proud howl that did hunt
the chestburster at birth and
saved Nostromo’s crew
Haiku for the love of everything
That and this and that,
Such improbability.
Sunrise…grain of sand.
Haiku for an early morning drive and subsequent death
sun rising distracts
steer the car off a steep cliff
orange pink purple blueHaiku for a Cyclical
<--to thoughts about time: how it moves, how it loops, how it leads one back-->
Haiku for an Enlightened New Year
I meditated
So hard I peed in my pants
Warm, wet, samadhi
Haiku For Poor Timing
Caught in the downpour
Twenty minutes walking home
Cold rain halts daydreams
Haiku for Kansas Politics
Old man on sidewalk
Jogs past Yoder sign, grabs it,
Rips it, runs, smiles
Haiku For Double-Edged Metaphors
Invisible hands
Cannot be accused, are not
Held accountable
