Haiku roundup (lectures to nutcracker).
father and daughter
exchange half-hearted lectures
"no more couch jumping"
drowned under their song
the narrow path caught swirling
a sea of blackbirds
sparkling in spring light
spinning from a single thread
thin caterpillar
inappropriate
these men pulling on their beards
during work luncheons
black and white ahead
I start talking to myself
so that the skunk knows
her nose starts to twitch
rustling in the bone-dry weeds
four jack rabbit ears
Saturday at dawn
looking for a nutcracker
for noisy squirrels
