Alone

I have what I want.
Still others seem to have more.
Contentment eludes.

Inside is the place
where contentment begins, starts.
Why can't I find it?

It's not things I crave
but a sense of belonging
that's just out of reach.

lunch options

snow pellets rain on
frozen roads, tangles traffic
Who wants delivery?

sick

uncomfortable
sinus wave rolls through my ears
seasick, sitting still

clog on left MUST GO
painful to cough, sniffle, and blow
doc says, "take these; rest."

just wondering

if a haiku gets
posted and nobody reads
it, does it still count?

after the last train home

headlights piercing mist
damp air saturates windshield
washrag mind sleepy.

my week

ahh three boys home sick
somewhat flu like somewhat not
lots of sleep and snot

cold medicines galore
three snoring masses on floor
tomorrow to school

one day one to class
next day another it goes slow
oy still not healthy

haiku! gesundheit!
it's intention, my life
Haiku! Gesundheit!

financial tiger

filed our taxes
feed dragon gold; brings much wealth
refunds on the way

updates

weary conf'rence calls
end-over-end; better with
soft cat's head in hand

six-year-old takes nap!
he must not be feeling well...
yes; fever - no school

soap opera

sister left husband
moved in with creep. just found out.
helpless across miles.

Make a better me.

earthbound self aloft.
