The dreams are gone
The river that once flowed through my mind has run dry
Flowers that blossomed yesterday
Today sit withering as they slowly die
Ashes from the roaring flame now cool to the touch . . . more

These are two haiku, the first about happy children and the second about the homeless. Pretty similar... and sad.

I am the other, the second wife
green-eyed, I did not lie,
slither or writhe
into his life:
the exuviating snake,
lying in wait
for some juicy, helpless morsel take
with flickering tongue
and long hissing . . . more

Abhorrent abomination of individual, thoughts of you burn my skin like lye
Spouting defecating ideals from your garbage bag of interpretations

Crushed I am grapeful, but

be drunk in sorrow
For me be

When you look in mine you’ll see my soul is crying.
If you listen to me speak
You will hear my heart is broken.
If you take a moment you . . . more

About mid afternoon I was in a down mood

I love me and no one else.
Stay outside the lines but listen closely,
Ponder these words I say politely, succinctly,

that compete with Venice skies
so I stole the regal flowers
from the garden of the palace
to place them on your Steinway
in exchange for a Moszkowski polonaise. . . . more

I am cold in snow away
Could
I live 'till summer, please--
