Haiku # 9

Raft winds aimlessly
sloshing down churning river
moon for company.

Haiku # 8

Possum and racoon
tuck into sublime feast spilled
from broken garbage.

Haiku # 7

My aching prayer.
Snowflakes drifting on the wind
delicate and still.

Haiku # 6

Cold, ivory moon
hangs in still autumn sky.
Keen harvest sickle.

Haiku # 5

My familiar stops
and gazes somewhere I can’t.
Composed as a ghost.

Haiku # 4

Green colander my
helmet broom my spear catcher’s
mitt my codpiece

Haiku #3

Fierce comfort of night
blizzard covers my regret
in blue hush, gently.
