kū and tanka from winter 2020-2021

quiet and rainy
windows are closed, but listen
world solitude

devotion –
sun that invites you
upon inspection

seated on winter grass –
computer juxtaposed
for final studies

this is a coup
trump = white supremacy
is domestic terrorism

carbonation,
sip the popping bubbles
winter rainfall

snow not sticking –
a son honors his father
claiming his mantle

screen replays
gaming loops before me
day lost to clouds

watching romances
traces of myself
in every lip’s furl

surprise, my kidneys!
who knows what occurs
beneath skin

tree in the wind
just so happy
to be here

bright clouds, cold blue :
dark window opened
growth of epochs

cold inspection
for the cold veggie harvest
– in warm clothes
the repeat burglar saunters
through those aisles again
