december salute to 2015

[judih]

minds converge
one single moment
all doubt erased

[saw]

dino whispers in my ear
mister poet isn't gone you know
yes I know that

[WIREMAN]

national haiku poetry day
he keeps whispering
raining and dreaming

[judih]

general work strike
marathon back-and-forth
school as usual

all hope
all luscious leisure
gone, gone

[saw]

cleaned the house today
I don't know what got into me
some things cannot be explained

[the mingo]

windy nests
hungry mouths
jewels shut up in the mountains

[judih]

dreams zoom high-speed
limited REM time
promos for tonight

[judih]

a drop of water
descent in slow-motion
reminder to breathe

[saw]

christmas in baltimore
yesterday was only 4 degrees cooler
than the fourth of july

strange daze indeed mama
the evergreens dripping with sweat
instead of snow

[judih]

crows sing winter
cackles of december
chill in the desert

[WIREMAN]

crows take over
black, sleek, & shiny
barren concrete walls

[judih]

work commandeers dreams
all together in service
new week strategy

[the mingo]

deer waiting
to cross the road
not one instant
without real threat
of wrong decision

( Gogyohka - 5 line form )

[saw]

black rainy road
a gorgeous red fox slowly looked up
from eating a stricken deer

the headlights
must have got him a little before I arrived
I slowed down to rubberneck

[judih]

traffic stalls
one parked tank ahead
iPod plays trance
