  1. Life is merchandised
    Uncle Sam's street theatre
    Fact and fiction blurred

    Valentino and Uccio

  3. Barn's burnt down --
    now
    I can see the moon


    A friend of mine, who had been suffering with deep depression and PTSD after a horrendous head on collision with a young tearaway driving a souped up Fiesta, that left him with brain damage,read this and had a Zen moment of insight which has hugely contributed to his ongoing but slow recovery!

    I think it's superb.

  4. No Haiku, but one of my favorite poems:


    Searching For The Hermit In Vain

     I asked the boy beneath the pines
    He said, "The master's gone alone
    Herb-picking somewhere on the mount,
    Cloud-hidden, whereabouts unknown."

    by Chia Tao who lived during the T'ang dynasty (777-841

  5. A constructive fire
    Since the shadow barn burned down
    I can see the moon

    In November, cold and wet

  8. They're tucked up in bed
    Waiting for winter to pass

  10. You may say so, sat
    on a fireproof office chair.
    Balls ablaze, tune changed.

    Entropy arrow of time
