Nothing In Its Hands

nothing in its hand
nothing in its heart
nothing in its head
northwards it gapes

what if the arctic melts
and corona car is offered
to transport your things

My brother, where will hide
with your elastic hands?


Three Haiku

I. [Fall]
Autumnal clouds fleet
Gray in an ominous sky: 
Harbinger of cold.

2. [Winter]
In silent snowy 
Woods, a faint crackling whisper
As the crystals fall.

3. [Spring]
The sun rides northwards
And the countryside will stir
From its wintry sleep.

Premium Member Sounds Off-Spring

the red kite whistles
to it's mate soaring above..
from their nest of love

chatter in the sky
northwards,in neat formation
migrating geese fly

a magpie arrives..
the starling's melody dies-
soundlessly death cries

just one flap of wings-
the sparrow-hawk makes its kill
pouncing down at will

Vanquishing Vampire Vixens, Part Iv

...Then, as expected, came a post-rider,
with a new letter he had to deliver:
A rancher facing evils not of this Earth,
so Sol saddled up, double-checked the girth.

Then rode out northwards in the morning dim,
never again would Victorville see him,
but this was God’s price for things he had done,
fighting monsters to earn his redemption.

Winter Geese

As the geese flew north
Their honking cries
Could be heard
In clear Autumn skies

Heading home
For a winter
At Heartstone

Filled with stories
From the south
A gentle wind
Pushed them ever northwards
Grey wings, beating with ease

On a starkly beautiful day
Forty two geese
Flew through winter sun
To Heartstone
Where they will stay
