haiku

i cannot find joyin the suffering of otherseven of assholes

raging snow flurryturns quickly into nothing--weather is fickle

not weird enough yetafter only 10 months--kitchen junk drawer

howling in the woods--the sounds of nature:not always serene

ragetransformed to kindness is the greatestweapon

deflected sunlightflits around the living room--orange cat flicks her tail

ebb and flowuncovers mollusksfor the gulls

the ocean drawsmy direct connectionto the sun

two more dead childrenand we react like they aretwo drops in the ocean

through the closed windowa draft moves the flameof the last candle

with a heavy hearti blow out the candle--prayer to the gods

a short walkto the town officefelt dangerous

pot luck dinnerscountry dancinglivin' la vida rural

in the endall magicbecomes science

at least i'm alive...'better than the alternative' --when will that be false?

at 65 can i lowercholesterol and triglyceridesby losing weight?

orange cat, black-white catonly one uses the cat treeIYKYK

6:17 wake-upcoffee and waffles for breakfastout to clear the drive

snow dives from the roofunable to resist the powerof the winter sun

still below freezingmore snow layers expected...but wait ... SUN!
