Under


unedited life promise
unbolted before our eyes
compromises untied underneath
underwhelming undergarment skies
unappreciated beings
from unadoptable orphanges
underestimate their unmothers
and unfathers and unothers
and unsadness
unthinking they would be
so double plus ungood.
unschooled and unshackled
and unscrupulous
unsealed documents behave untaught
untangle the words unthinkingly
and rebehave unwisely.

sonnet 50


Dedicated to the point of return.
There was never ever, every body,
cloudy dusty antibodies, trying
to make everything all right in the world.
How seriously the social skin burned
when there was always one hundred bodies.
Smelly sardines just sitting there fitting
into open cans, lids so tightly curled.
The odors slightly in the air did churn.
Neighbours, parents, children, everybody
turning their noses toward the sky, smelling
all the better air way up there unfurled.
If you accept the sadness all around
getting off the ground is easier found.

inDirection (in haiku series)

elevate instance
upward into tall high fields
of mindful whispers

push down decision
deeper far in some rich ground
let raw slowly grow

up is wherever
slow down is now anywhere
indifference blooming
