Month: December, 2012

MOON HAIKU

The West Desk Window 9:44pm

I STEPPED ON MOON GLOW

IN MY NIGHT-TIME LIVING ROOM

LOOKED UP:  BLUE HALO

MY CHRIST WISH

The Tomato-coloured Couch 2:22pm

I want to draw out

Humanity’s Heart

Feed It to The Black Crows

Hungry

flying against the wind

outside My Kitchen Glass Doors

I want to sit underneath My Tree

My Scraggly Apple

out in My Pro-life Underwear

in snow flurries

Come Inside

to know the warmth

of My Living Room

with Eliza’s Long-stemmed Coral Roses

clipped & vased

CHRISTMAS HAIKU

WHY IS DEBT CEILING

SNAPPY TERMINOLOGY

FOR THEIR FISCAL CLIFF?

PARAPHRASE

The Hawk Kitchen 10:06pm

I am being called upon

to look at The Sky

The Wallowing Clouds

with few breaks of Light

And Now, as I look up from My Writing —

another passage of sleety snow

HAWK KITCHEN HAIKU 8:53am

This Is My World

I Drink My Second Coffee

Beside The First Snow

LOOK, I’LL TELL IT LIKE IT IS

The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:00pm

A Song Came On The Radio

@ 2:22 Today, an appointed time

apres circuitous counter-clockwise route

around Sobey’s Emergency Cart Corral

It was a song from HIM (Lady Gaga HIM)

“She’s So High Above Me”

& instead of making Me burst into tears

(as I did Thirty Years Ago when presented

with a dozen white roses by a bartender who left)

It made Me Smile

(in the privacy of My Car)

& Now I Have A Song

NOTICE TO MY READERS

Today has been a very big day for Me

and some of the events I want to keep private for now.

Please understand and do not think I am fooling with your Mind/Minds.
