Haiku roundup (garbanzos to grind).

recipe advice
garbanzos and kidney beans
"not for company"

tattooed and withered
somehow she survived this far
to sell discount shoes

across the tall field
exchanging bleats and laughter
the fat goat and I

ambitious new hire
pantomimes hopeful golf swings
near the CEO

quiet between waves
stillness but for a heartbeat
a blackbird singing

gray sky is heavy
a saturated tea bag
on the saucer's rim

fireball sun sinking
as clouds seal the horizon
on another day

on the pool's surface
the drunken water striders
stumbling steadily

Japanese maple
filtering the evening glow
path ahead blushes

empty stone lantern
imprisons the setting sun
one moment each day

skilled garden raking
concentric circles of sand
this splash of pebbles

mid-afternoon lull
headed for a cup of joe
to get through the grind
