Porcelain serenity

Only quiet time
to read tea ceremony
book is in bathroom.

Haiku journal

My small gift to my
self – a few words at the end
of a busy day.

Can’t sleep 7

I said I’d be in
bed by ten. Then midnight. Now
it’s one. How ’bout three?

J’s collapse

Home sick, she lies in
bed, stomach queasy, still in
her day-before clothes.

Procrastination – Already too small

It took eight weeks to
wrap the baby outfit and
give it to the dad.

Coffee house office

Wi Fi whore, I go
where there’s access, drinking bad
java just to surf.

Overworked

When the going gets
tough, I end up sleeping on
the couch, fully clothed.

Bride of Frankenstein

The review called her
‘fetching’ – wrapped in bandages,
convulsing, bleeding.

Sleepless in New York

My eyeballs feel like
they’re wearing socks – thick, itchy,
uncomfortable.

24/7 coverage

Where would CNN
be if breaking news ceased,
nothing to report?
