Expected Voids

November’s slipping

Quickly into history,

Leaving, in its wake,

A predictable absence

In the forest canopy

Haiku 15 Mar 2016

In these waning weeks

Winter whimpering softly

Surrenders to Spring

Surrender

letting go and letting god 

i surrender into sleep,

seeking not to guide the dream

yet hoping for some sight unhid 

within the inner fallow fields;

some errant blooming volunteer

unplanted by conscious hand

but offering a hopeful gleem 

of fuller life upon arising.

Haiku 29 Apr 2015

Daylight slowly fades

Along with remaining strength

Darkness embraces

Attention!

Attention, you haves:

Systemic oppression yields 

Baltimore’s result!

Attention, have nots: haves’ want

any excuse to

ignore your valid concerns.

Protest without violence!
