a troop of langurs: five monkeys doing five things as one family.
The Langur Family [Haiku]
1

at mangrove’s edge:
a croc, mouth agape.
lazy hunter?

behind the leaf,
a spider hides like a fat
kid behind a pole.

the treetop leaves
that catch early & late sun
are the first to fall.

if your mushroom has
an eye, it’s time to stop
eating mushrooms.

a plump heron
walks on lily pads: my own
Personal Jesus.

flip two letters
and prohibition becomes
invitation.

bunker on the beach
sends mixed messages about
trip tranquility.

when you’re the family
go-getter, and yet you’re
a zoned-out mess.
