Moonstruck eyes
watch him rise;
honeysuckle spills over.

Elder. (haiku)
Cobwebs drift unseen,
sunlight peeks through
boarded up windows.

Disquietude. (haiku)
Fingerprint bruises
roll down a small freckled arm—
thunder booms at night.

The morning after. (haiku)
The quiet rainfall
washes away dried cold sweat
from the night before.

Working. (haiku)
A smirk in the dark,
cheap dress peeled off in silence;
petals fall apart.

October. (haiku)
Wet leaves on pavement,
harsh winds reveal skeletons—
bloodless and crooked.

Rites of passage. (haiku)
Early winter fog
envelops the neighborhood—
a burial shroud.
