haikouldn’t ask it of you

“Read my poem? Please?”
In real life I’d get blank stares.
Here, you’re back for more.

Dubious milestone

Just over five months
This one four hundred fifty
Art or wasted time?

I’ve lied to you

A haiku a day?
Not quite. Some days the tap runs,
some days it’s bone dry.

Like a lover who
wanders I return here to
check in now and them

In mourning early morning

J9 can’t sleep since
her mother died stays up and
writes heartache in tears.

Live your dream

Today J begins
flying not yet a driver
the sky’s the limit

WV Oscar night tradition

They walk the carpet.
We eat takeout Chinese and
scream for our favorites.

Watching after 2 am

TV morphs into
loser land infomercials
for acne weight loss

Beading obsession

Handful of turquoise
begs to be strung with silver
draped around my neck.

Johnny the homicidal maniac

The Director’s Cut
in her hands M reads snuggled
with her Uglydoll.
