hokusai
haiku
2019 - 2023
--
canada goose dead
in bed of woodland nettles
railway track smoothe steel
--
old man wakes to pain
joints, muscles ache when they move
determined stretches
--
loki poisonous
loud laughter in the corner
broken dreams of man
--
great greed of grendle
in the calamatous hall
silence by the end
--
standing tall, wind-whipped,
large fist round long hammer haft,
thor bestrode fjord
--
ship moored in fjord
vertical mountain surrounds
red and white striped sail
--
large fire, old man sits
and tells stories of heroes
creeping in the dark
--
i wanted to heal
but i am without something
why then send me here?
--
pulverized small life
smears spots on speeding glass shield
remorseless poet
--
us, conceived broken,
broken by calamity
cold draft on shoulders
--
bounder, leaping stride,
lands on heel on wooden floor
large house, spacious room
--
before krakken-might
woman again pikks me up
sunshine on wave krests
--
woman we know what
sudden strength you find for us
bedazzling fur leaps
--
painters in 3s, 4s
stentorious invektive
petals on a bough
--
njord roars from the west
foaming white crests, great sea swell
gale god conjures awe
--
dolphin breaches waves
mammalian projectile
energic, streamlined
--
pink lipstick woman
sweeps up dung in lush green field
alpacas chew grass
--
blissful child pets lamb
under hot abruzzo sun
skinhead stands nearby
--
hear you the thunder?
you in your house, there, me here
charged, cool summer air
--
sound of tyre spray
as cars pass open window
gull cry in slow rain
--
under the big trees
a conviviality
humid lagoon breeze
--
amphitheatre
half circle of scorched taupestone
thick-sliced tomatoes
--
beautiful-ugly
fox of dappled sun and gore
fleetness undulate
---
debitage scatter
ancient flakes of ancient flint
knapped by crouching folk
---
joy of mirrored shards
slow-turned, fervent, glorious
kaleidoscope hues
---
go to the good place
we are waiting for you there
go to the good place
---
wood smoke slow rises
from subtle flames working sticks
immanent fire
---
distant red earth scent
of dense patchouli, blest oil
turning, i look up
---
so carefree, and yet
jackboots of siblings are near
enchanting jerusalem
