Swimming under waves

Swimming under waves
Foam clouds darken above me
Rays of light appear

Carport roof rattles

Carport roof rattles
as though rain lands upon it
Rain of locust feet

In the dentist's chair

In the dentist's chair
my head full of chirps and squeals
like a modem's song

Hill Indigo blooms

Hill Indigo blooms
with a pop and a scatter
nature's moneyshot

In workplace vacuums

In workplace vacuums
talent grows to fill the void
or all morale shrinks

Forbidden fruit

Without knowing why
Like a girl from school I teased
Swoon with frisson

Fog

Early morning fog
cut by straight lines of shadow
on my walk to work

Downpour

A cloudburst of rain
like the thundering of hands
showering applause

Frigid speaker amps

Frigid speaker amps -
they are last to be turned on
and the first turned off

A young snake at dusk
like water running uphill
fleeing from my bike

The Bassling sound

Lower frequencies
and snappy beats to spell out
an entrancing groove

Sunset

Red clouds glowing late
as though filaments alit
on a bar heater

The sun penetrates

The sun penetrates
the wave as it folds over
in a flash of green

Aeolian harp

Aeolian harp
sings something sharper than G
and then goes sublime

In the old quarry

In the old quarry
A groove runs through the hill top
Like a flathead screw

Optimism in drought

Tractors stir the dust
outside my window tonight
Rain must be forecast

"Moon!"

"Moon!" my son demands
and there's no choice but show him
the clouded night sky

Albert Kinsey knew

Albert Kinsey knew
if we are all perverted
the label won't work

Why me?

A voice in my head
says "Why me? Why me? Why me?"
I'm ignoring it

Pucker up

You can kiss my bum
if you want a new haiku
every other week
