Briefly - Haiku and Bumper Stickers

Haiku


Spun my big cocoon
Waited all the long winter
Still a freakin' worm


Discussion is done
A circle of empty chairs
Now makes perfect sense


Weeds for a garden
Tin can house - not suffering
My birds sing: Caw! Caw!


Dead winter silence
Rose petals crash to the floor
The mouse clomps around


In the Autumn snow
Five new foot tracks - cryptic runes
Of human purpose


Oh, lovely Goddess
Would that breezes of eros
Lift thy metaphor


Atop Mt. Wilson
So proud to be so high up
Sat in eagle poo


Found my female side
Shaved it, made it smell pretty
Guys do nothing right


Like a barnacle
On a great ship - I'm THIS close
To being captain


Tearing through the trees
Clouds crash into the mountains
They turned off the sound
