Greener grasses



Pre-fixed upon how
the rooster breaks his silence
atop a fence post.

Drought & doubt (Haiku)


Greening of the grass-
fruitless as the conifer,

Always greener


I have been watering the grass,
I have brushed my teeth-wait-yes,
with the water on too long
I have washed my car-
worse I have had it washed.
I have cut the two best roses
for myself by the coffeepot
to smell in the morning.
I have said too much,
I have said nothing at all.
I have flooded the attic-
and the walls may cave
in on me-
but that would be selfishly
about me.
I have sunk to new levels,
as water will often dew.
