For you, soft haiku/
are filed away. I can’t risk/
that much exposure

Can one who can’t dance/
in the kitchen grasp the waltz/
of rain and songbirds?

OR

Can one who dances/
in the kitchen grasp the waltz/
of rain and songbirds?

OR

Only one who’ll dance/
in the kitchen grasps the waltz/
of rain and songbirds.

You of the One-Word/
reply: It’s hard knowing when/
I can engage you.

Dawn. You? Miles away./
Even my inbox, empty./
It bites the big one.

I drift back to sleep:/
That sweet dreamland where at least/
we are together.

I wonder what good/
could be gained by texting late./
Is it understood?

On your way/
2 feed the poor,/
I just wish 4/
1 chance more/
2 tell U earnestly/
how deeply sorry/
I truely am/
4 any misunderand/
ing./
I didn’t mean/
anything.

Your isle, tropical./
Mine, cloudy and cold: Of us,/
the antithesis.

Hi. R U OK?/
I don’t hear from U at all;/
U ask me 2 call.

Full moon is again/
in view. She has disappeared:/
Caved into herself.
