the dog, tense, drooling
eyes rolled back showing the whites
he fears the vacuum
——
Haiku Horizons
prompt “fear”
floating and leaving no trace
the dog, tense, drooling
eyes rolled back showing the whites
he fears the vacuum
——
Haiku Horizons
prompt “fear”
shackled to my ghosts
unable to free myself
–i’m the only one
——
AND
the signs were all there
scratched sofa and feathered toys
beware of the cat
——
watching for hours
slowly, slowly without wings
the orange moon flies
——
basho’s ancient frog
too tired to sing a love song
leaps into the grass
——
into the backyard
i toss the spider i saved
–a fast bird, quick lunch
—-
bedside, the dog growls
my eyes fly open, ready
–awakened from sleep
don’t spend your money
this sunset muted by clouds
–worth little, worth all
