softly velvet

soft as a block of butter
hard from the fridge

Lion of Judah

Electricity sizzles
The smell of cordite fills the air.

Burns dimly against the ancient mirror of reflections, the necromancer
Chants in rhythms rhythmic undertones, stirring the rippling pools of
Illusions, between the divisions of altered...

Foreign to us as spirits in the air

I’m Onomato-pea-a
The window is my home.
I love the sounds of cooking
At day, at dusk, and dawn.
Mom clomps into the room
And clicks on every light
The curtain whooshes open,
I wake up, “No more night!”
Drawers squeak, cabinets creak
Bread...

The Homestead
“The Homestead”
In my dreams
I still see the house –
The old country place
Nestled among the Mesquite trees
That whispered a welcoming chant.
The grandmother stands bent over
A cabinet rolling out dough for oversized biscuits
While bacon sizzles on...

Pride
The old house stands still.
Rot has set in.
A flying termite caught in the webs of a dead spider, sway to the shrill of a ceiling fan.
All things sway.
Dreams rise and suffocate in the mouldering mortars

Happy June 30th
The parking lot full
of all the familiar faces,
we are early -
all the old people
driving carts,
at the door,
waving us in…
we are them too
the remnant
of a relative crowd.
My oldest grandson
has experienced

POPCORN
White kernels of hot popping yummy flavoring,
Cooked in golden butter drippings, lightly sprinkled
To taste with salty perfections gentle touch,
At the kitchen cooks discretion.
The crunchy and munchy treat, to pass
Around at any family social gatherings
Celebration.

Haiku Passage 9
Evening cicadas
Cacophony climax;
Night time music
~~~~~~~~~
By this playground
Noisy frolic parades;
Little feet gather
~~~~~~~~~
Haiku moment:
Brief promontory,
Dragonfly buzz
~~~~~~~~~
Raining non-stop
Wet moments splash;
Umbrella parade
~~~~~~~~~
Aqueous verses
Heavy pieces drowning;
Pouring rain recites
~~~~~~~~~
Walkway cobblestones
Busy footfalls conspire;
Old man ponders
~~~~~~~~~
Odd faces
Cellphone conversations;
Bus-stop queue
~~~~~~~~~
Gone away
Cannes vacation;
Stopover at Nice
~~~~~~~~~
Fruit...
