SENRYU

 


two black socks

go into the dryer –

one comes out



the new CEO –

we’re all in this together

I just get paid more



your secret places

my secret places –

an ikebana lesson



the sound

of one mosquito

harmonizing



day after day

talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk –

grand ole Oprah



drive that great big

SUV through the hole

in the ozone



ozone, ozone

we don’t need no stinkin’

ozone



Sunday afternoon

and football season

is over



a winter’s worth

of frozen dog turds –

first sign of spring



those faces in

the metro station –

all a sickly pink



new rest stop opens

on the interstate

come pee with us
