thursday hi-coo

We should enjoy youth
We won't be young forever
We're not that young now

yellow lights inside
i write my haiku to you
as you send yours off

wed

headache waking-up
kids & birds & sun & naps
there is so much left.

Could barely wake up
Good bye seems like its too soon
Thank god that you're here

tues

so many birds lately
and what would it be like to
have hallow bird bones?

Two sets of flowers
Not ready to say goodbye
Night caps talk talk talk

monday high

Push pull back and forth
We haven't gotten it right
But I won't give up

getting serious:
move the garden into sun
and warm up the earth

haiku sunday

it's still cold outside
i have been thinking so much
"gotta have a plan"

We need to just rest
Worry makes life go so fast
And yours is now gone

Amazing grace is
So hard to find. I once was
Lost, now further lost.

settle back in sun
the basement is filled with fish
i wanna learn banjo

friday haiku

some nights don't rest well
Its just too much, I am done
Music and chopin

nest outside window.
losing touch with morning dove.
ducks stand on one leg.

Up so early, oh!
All of this is just nonsense
Wine and dine all night

dear dearest up so
school all day and sun is out
drawing, drinks with dan

wednesday

Surprised to see snow
Somehow it feels stronger now
Didn't want to leave

half day turned full day
snow falls lightly and ignored
draw to make deadlines

tuesday

Wake up cold so down
Death head but your eyes still see
Black fire sees true

how are you able?
hug your shoulders, rock back and
sand and whale-shaped rocks.

monday

Day started so rough
Tears and stress, just forget it
Sitting on the stoop

second day of spring
snowing all day, geese fly over
school, home and dirt road.

Monday, March 21, 2011

sunday

Wake up early, work
Sister Carrie, Prohibition
Wasteful cab ride home

no mercy yoga
mismatch outfit up mountain
clean house feel tired

Sunday, March 20, 2011

saturday

wake up perfect house
keep windows open all night
get cold close up tight

Life goes by so fast
We won't remember dying
We don't recall birth

fri

wake up, went to school
beautiful day for basement
the frogs are out, cheep

Throwing up at work
I can't take any more down
Silent. Stare at moon.

thursday

Be still, be quiet
An end brings a beginning
Spring comes on Sunday

day off think of you.
no coats, no more coats, sunshine.
keep you for yourself.

wednesday sighcoo

North-bound train at 6
In borrowed clothes, soaking wet
Walk off the bad day

rain drops in my eyes
a wild imagination
it's better to live [then to die]

tues haiku

Sleep through garbage trucks
body on cart, fever breaks
One more night at home

thank g. for sunrise
you live life like it's your life
every day matters

monday

my teeth itchy hurt
made a commitment today
where is it going?

So many questions
Ocean Grove, reassurance
Shakey hands, now sleep

Monday, March 14, 2011

sunday haiku

wake feel sick, moving
to take bus, ferry, subway
apt. 4b

drive down to jersey
Last rites, your poor shaking hand
Tear apart your gift

Sunday, March 13, 2011

saturday

go two museums
the city is a postcard
walk down avenue

Sun through the window
Reach end of pier and Mike's Spot
Worrying too much

Saturday, March 12, 2011

friday

Japan: the earth shook
Midtown, downtown, Brooklyn bound
Wake Theresa up

hot to cold wake up
move in between raindrops too
& span time with friends

Friday, March 11, 2011

thursday

It will never matter
Wood and paint and dirty schools
Feel nothing no more

keep hopes high and low
and getting ready to go
tomorrow's future

tues haiku

(He) must take you there
New York's full of crazy folks
Screaming on platforms

write one poem a day
one hundred crunches daily
and everything else

Monday, March 7, 2011

monday hachoo

Waiting and waiting
Feign fanciness (put on airs)
Mayor makes mistakes

getting ready now
get a job and move again
reach past life limits

haiku sunday

Voices through curtain
morning seems another day
taxes downpour spill

belly of a boat
as the rain falls on my ft.
& i write for you

Sunday, March 6, 2011

he has both his arms
in the picture he smiles
i walk on back roads

Take a long warm bath
Paint kitchen counter, glue maps
Emergency room

f haiku

Gallery walk-through
Demands make plans get cancelled
Deconstruct. Construct.

first five syllables
can never explain enough
when he has no legs.

haiku "to do" thursday

have to stop waiting
for the weather to get warm
got to free your mind

Always be hungry
Don't float through life, be alive
Fight for what you want

Wednesday, March 2, 2011

wednesday

Plastic bags, barbed wire
Dream of never coming back
Hold, can't feel the cold

keep sleeping, sleep more
trying to shake the sickness
beating it, sleep more

first day of march, tuesday haiku

Height draws blood to heart
Fever dreams, peeling fingers
Warmed by the March sun

sickness creeping in
insert all symptoms here, now
so march marches on
