my heart behind bars
solitary confinement
for caring too much
Senryu
another long night
forlorn and solitary
neath the lonely moon
Senryu
Umbrellas held high
rubber boots splash and splatter
a drowning parade
Haiku
early afternoon
golden sun through feathered clouds
a cat curled asleep
Haiku
you are so clever
erudite and eloquent
and i applaud you
but i find it surprising
that one with so much talent
would be so needy
Choka
forget shame and guilt
they will only deepen wounds
learn to love yourself
forgiving your past wrongs
then find your inner children
and bring them back home
Choka
we stumble along
in the vast staggering herd
ready to stampede
Senryu
