eachakradiating
At a time of studying the pressure points of acupuncture, I was exposed to alternative treatments and theories associated with them.  Chakras need further investigation to validate the power of these various body areas.

evevadam
In my brain, Adam then Eve doesn't work (forget the snake). The first two human like creatures, our ancestors, were probably both female, with one of them, the one more aggressive, mutated to a male and then evolving from that point on.

fire
redwood
odyssey
With the fires burning today, there is not too much known about the combs that fall to the floor of the forests where they reside.  Actually the seeds are released and free to regenerate because of the fires.   So the journey of the redwood tree will continue as mother nature has provided.

guns, unseen enemy
"Unseen" replaces hidden, but easily a synonym fitting my thought about guns.   This was originally published in Modern Haiku.

It's a dark and far away place I'll never know or want to know. But it exists. Meditation works just as well but it takes a lot of practice.

hiddenemyself
this poem is one of my best minimal haiku poems or ku for short.

hidden energy, gymnastics
I have a very strong feeling about the word "hidden." One of my minimals using this word for the first time was "hiddenemyself." The second time I used it was in the combination with the word "chi" and led to "chiddenergy."   This word keeps reappearing in my mind, morphing into new minimals. I know that I will be using it again.

You are what you eat. But if you do, try the plain yogurt, low fat. It has a lot less calories.

icicle, clear archetecture
The obvious, but somehow we may miss what stares us in the face. I wrote this many, many years ago and looking at it at first, was as confusing as the message may be.

one Sunday I had a call from Robert Spiess (Modern Haiku) who enjoyed this minimal to the point of calling me about it.  I never forgot the call or the $1.00 I received for it.
