A year in haiku
31.7.11
on juxtaposition
see three-deep cat heap
sleep; grey black orange the new
neapolitan
30.7.11
on autumn
lesser seasons cry
uncle, yield all pretense to
wisdom, mystery
29.7.11
on spring
nature's febreze fresh-
bombs musty earth, overhauls
winter-bloated air
28.7.11
on winter
sad old man holding
court in comfortless bed of
old grey handkerchiefs
27.7.11
on summer
skin sun-electric;
technicolor lilies nod
in meat-scented breeze
26.7.11
on symbiosis
dolls eschewed, she sleeps
facedown in book: infusing
drool, osmosing seuss
25.7.11
on 1978
days of the brothers
gibb three: when men were boys and
eunuch rock was king
24.7.11
on music
months piano-less
cheese-seeking fingers worry
through
macarthur park
23.7.11
on girth
pants button ejects
on sitting; emergency
fat advisory
22.7.11
on mothering
suddenly climate
change less urgent than plotholes
in
Curious George
21.7.11
on shame
unread classics glare
from bookshelf; Star Magazine
better read elsewhere
20.7.11
on function
water-filled garden
clogs: poor man's foot bath now in
six
stylish colors
19.7.11
on menace
creepy graffiti:
"imagine someone's watching"
big brother banksy
18.7.11
on mother and child
sweaty baby foot
improbably induces
pheromone-drunk love
17.7.11
on co-napping
small feet all up in
ribcage as if gestating
from the outside in
16.7.11
on mysteries
long-lost note to self:
"blog -- bob saget." sometimes you
just don't want to know
15.7.11
on justice
president's address
interrupts must-see TV --
some impeached for less
13.7.11
on infestation, pt. II
exterminator
no-shows; walls reverberate
with mouse high-fiving
12.7.11
on decor
daughter's lamp conforms
to new legislation: no
pom pom left behind
11.7.11
on affirmation
validation by
mail: publisher's clearing house
says I'm a winner
10.7.11
on pharmaceuticals
mama's after-op
delight: the incredible
lightness of codeine
9.7.11
on acting out
the artful tantrum:
greek tragedy mask atop
small angry ballet
8.7.11
on sustenance
mac, cheese -- lactophile
dream, lactose intolerant's
nightmare, al dente
7.7.11
on bartering
tooth fairy take note:
now accepting kittens, cars
in lieu of quarters
6.7.11
on goodbyes
brushing doomed wisdom
teeth for last time; strangely sad,
brilliantly pointless
5.7.11
on coming home
feathers in car grill
mouse remains on floor; home is
where the carnage is
4.7.11
on the hotel room
borrowed habitat
does everything in mini:
bar, blinds, body wash
3.7.11
on the hotdog
humble meatfusion
transcends thanks to triple threat
of bun, flame, mustard
2.7.11
on road food
chicken dinner to
go: deconstructed poultry
in a french fry nest
1.7.11
on practical design
one-stop shop: hotel
bathroom boasts coffee-making
station, microwave
