creek that trickles
through a stark winterscape —
days from riverhood.

Condemned [Free Verse]
Condemnation placard
Stapled to the church door
With the commanding tone
Of Luther’s notice.
The Condemned has stately bones
But its skin and viscera
Are in shambles.
Sun pierces stained glass,
Bathing dirty surfaces
With bright color,
But the dust and rat shit
Remain to create a
Miasma within.
One day a wrecking ball
Will make good on the
Condemnation.

Foot-tapping Seagull [Kyōka]
a Seagull stands
at a respectful distance
from a fish stall,
waiting for the fishmonger
to do the right thing.

Beetle [Lyric Poem]
A Beetle that was built like a tank
Crawled over a blazing riverbank
Now as any sane one would think
It should head straight for the drink
To cool off its little ole toes.
But as astute readers will know,
It hasn't really got any toes,
So, it can walk hot sands real slow.

Last Blossom [Haiku]
bloom-laden Cherry
tree attracts no viewers;
the last blossom does.
