the neighbors don't
say hello to me anymore
I owe them money
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

nothing to say
but I type anyway
there I've done it again
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

I never write poetry
but when I do I try to keep it away
from my food

a blend of four continents

eel of time
impossible to grasp
slips thru the fingers
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

waiting for haiku
is like waiting for coffee
to brew by itself

my throat

as bark peels away
tree remains upright
flow of slower sap

bark of the tree
bark of the hound
not artificial
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

in the street many people
going to & coming from
raising dust

stomp through my dreams
