SKUNK CABBAGE
Is the bee attracted
to skunk cabbage sour
.. or to the fragrance
of sweet flowers..
Is the bee attracted
to the sword this hour
or to cherry blossoms'
beauty power?
ASIAN FEET
AND METRICAL FEET
he thought it wrong
to be bound by a 17
syllable haiku
rule (17 is
the 8 vibration of
mars)
as it was to bind
Asian feet
in tiny shoes
or force an elephant
to stand on a stool
or confine
bonsai
in tiny vases
or put infinite
children
in spirit killing schools
MAYA FRACTURES THE ONE
sliding down
a waterfall.. a ball of amber
the brain processes the color
shape and motion
in 3 different chambers
MURDER MYSTERY PLOT
an event of mortmain...
.. from the crabclaw
the dead hand
he made an anaphylactic poison
masked as a heartattack
to take his rival male's soul
to a disembodied land
and then stuck the body
in the refrigerated boxcar
of a moving train
and then stuck the body
in the refrigerated boxcar
of a moving train
CAPRICORN MOON
The full moon
rose
hitting the left side of
the mountain
spreading a pink
glow
over the sparkling snow
beautiful.
