rocket pops blue tongues
raspberry lemon salute
sweetness in my soul
bitter beer hot dog
smoke woodsy lingers in my
pony tail swooshing
the hogs growl as the
jean and leather veterans’
eyes well up with Taps
the leathery feel
of my uncle’s tired hands
while i trace his scars
a little young girl
did see the poignant pain in
his tribulations
for ever brothers
gone away heroes to the
Elysium Fields
this haiku is not
about pretty flowers or
skies of blue and love
this second one is
to notify you that i
don’t write tenderly
hate me or like me
this is who i am just know
that you’re in my heart
place my cheek upon
your palms and draw me into
your love one last time
my eyes reflect time
my body hides the holy
secrets not known yet
civilizations
rise and fall below my feet
i am anointed
by the sky goddess
her crown she relinquishes
to me the new One
tickle me with your
lips supple with lies but sweet
tongue waves through my soul
kiss shining like ice
across my throat you stroke me
nibble at my breast
lick at my deep thoughts
groan together at the moon
anticipation
mounts about our face
devastation came too soon
loneliness smiles wide
fresh green jewel eyes
tiptoeing through the garden
watch your children grow
babes cling to your breast
nourishing their tender souls
stretch out their tendrils
the dawn crawls to you
threatening beast that cuts you down
your seed have scattered
electricity
from the great heavens lights up
forming a new world
an opened can of
corn and ash filled cups behind
your bible bookcase
i didn’t notice
dusk approaching silently
baby blue surfboard
against your bedroom
doors my hand reaches to them
Darwin winks at me
encircling my legs
your absence claws both our hearts
he feeds on salmon
the path of cigar
ashes etched like hieroglyphs
leads to your studio
Old Glory salutes
me she hangs on solemnly
a noble widow
kneeling in front of
the jar holding your medals
Darwin smiles at me
touch only if you want
to feel life everlasting
my lips keep secrets
divine life circuits
through my very soul fabric
i am womanhood
forever wisdom
standing at the head of all
silent in love strong
