Haiku
quiet, curtain swish
the moon filled lake vanished
black, bathed in magic

Haiku
of moments not things
caught in nets of gossamer;
sweetness not possessed
Mother + Cigarette
Haiku
then her stained fingers
brown as rotted fruit touch me
deep into my brain

All there is
Haiku
Pain aims at me, points
feckless, foams at the mouth, creates
focus, sharper, now
City break
I think the colour of my eyes
has changed. Look at me
Face to face with the open air
They’ve moved from cloudy to blue
They’ve transitioned from woman to girlish
They’ve settled to clear from guarded
Hazel reflected stillness, purpose, simplicity, dotted with lambs and lushness
In the space of just a season on the farm
Under the same sun. My face is open
to the air, which is fair, I think
I’ve changed my vision.
Black on Black
Haiku
Night bird flies the wind
So dark, tossed against the sky
Sounds snatched from its throat
