Cotton Candy Clouds [Haiku]

clouds, pulled & rolled
like fine webbing, glow in the
conch-orange sunlight

Mind-Breaking Poetry [Free Verse]

I need some mind-breaking poetry -
some Blake, some Dickinson,
some Yeats, some Whitman,
some Langston Hughes.

I need a poem that's a kōan, 
that makes the mind a mackerel fish,
and doesn't mind doing it.

I need a poem that sizzles
inside my bones.

Dreams All the Way Down [Free Verse]

I awaken from a dream
within a dream,
and I'm still dreaming --

dreaming that I'm walking
with the others,
the others that I'm told
are all me,
walking in some vaguely familiar
exotic destination

Of course, I don't know I'm dreaming.

I did wake up after all,
but it turns out that

it's dreams all the way down.

Part Line [Haiku]

a gleaming river
parts the near, vivid hills 
from the smoky frauds

Fisher [Haiku]

watching a duckling
hold a thrashing fish tightly,
i drop my corn chip

Autumn Sapling [Haiku]

the maple sapling
flexes in the breeze,
but holds its leaves
