What to wear today
Kentucky’s not that far away

Permission to sleep
Scent of doughnuts says she’s home
A father’s guard duty

Twenty years later
Still checking your APGAR score
Happy birthday son
Haiku 55
Oh flesh of my flesh
Cleaved cleanly from aching bone
Moonlit steam rising
Haiku 54
The space between us
Once amply laced with breadcrumbs
Now hosts only ants
Haiku 48
I saw it happen
Fatal crash in slow motion
’til death do us part

A great Provider
I resented his absence
Our roles reversed now
Haiku 26
Clawed feet tear the earth
Pulling ghosts up through the soil
He cannot outrun them
Haiku 25
Carnivorous drink
Stalks children in my nightmares
Their blood on my hands
