alone in
this twisted cobweb
my heart breathes

freeway ramp
becomes a wormhole
into hell

wet glass i
felt the rain through
windshield wipers

you are the shark slowly
swimming round its prey
the color of my skin

eat lots of
spinach to write
healthy haiku

words like butterflies
some caught some
fly away

you are a
slow poison while i
plead the knife

lying now
won't unlove me
in the past

truth emerging like
a small hungry bird from a
fragile shell

two girls two blindfolds
walk them down the same aisle then
mutilate their eyes

story ends
with second act
tragedy

what is the price of
a guitar lesson? is fifty
bucks worth a soul?

haiku to
wash away clotting
from so many lies

a brick wall
head on collison
i mash my foot down

black beans
versus pinto beans
taco stand off

behind the
curtain the show within
the show

do not smile to yourself
like a sneaky child people
will know we're in love

taste of pure
milk chocolate triggers
drug addict

without the
sun the earth can't spin
lame axis

two steps forward two
steps back when you write like a
caveman with no tongue

heart like a
blackboard and you
are chalk dust

split seconds
in single digits to
infinity

barbeque
sauce bloodies sidney,
but not mom

betrayal
word tries in vain to
name this ache

staring contest
someone always loses
an eye

bad wrangler
a coward is not
a good cow

pen moving
you write inside me
the song cums

we don't talk
we just breath you call
it falling

this song for me alone
as if written in ink
on my inner thigh

indecision
fills up this page
with dumbness

while you talk
i'll watch your
eyelashes blink

is it bad
my best friend is
this cold coffee?

inside your
smile the faint stench of
cavity

this love
like a noose
tightening

if a haiku falls
in a forest is anyone
there to read it?

we combine like new
lovers in the soft throes of
song writing

empty swing beneath
my tree and this lonely petal
falling free

lion roars
then wonders why his
claws are feared

the only
thing i need from
you is you
