prospect park
the smell of lighter fluid
spring breeze



night-time church yard
the aroma of the day's cutting



subway date
one young guy telling
the other about base 2

in the library
getting shushed
by a patron

Progress?

right after
the big bang,
the first popup ad

has gone from
a punishment
to a reason to be punished



save the children
from the whales




and now, an actual haiku:


berries gone
the pigeons still waiting
late summer
