5/31/09: Weekend

Think about buildings

empty today—all the rooms

ready for echoes.

Waiting patiently—

for a new haiku to

float up with the sun.

5/29/09: Window

From here, you can see

the lake flashing all evening,

clinging to the sun.

5/28/09: Sedgwick

The train is walking

through the station so each face

can see the others.

5/27/09: Question

Why do I never

see the planes I hear, as if

they flew elsewhere?

5/26/09: At Work

Gray crowds the day with

clouds—the weighty afternoon

too thick to think through.

5/25/09: Edenic

A world without us

might still be dreaming—its days

unmarked and flowing.

5/24/09: Scrutiny

The trees fill with green

and become one shape, lobed like

great brains watching us.

5/23/09: Worry

I dreamt of sleeping,

but the hours circled like

hawks overhead.

5/22/09: Trick Ink

Forgotten haiku—

all written to recall, all

fading in sunlight.
