A Hundred Gourds Haiku

Here are all of the haiku I published in A Hundred Gourds, the excellent but long since closed online journal.

punching
through the target
shadow boxer

unable to shake
last night’s dream
day moon

the weight I swore
I’d never gain again
full moon

his
excuse
grows
thin
mountain
air

bent over
too many steps
my shadow

breaking at the surface his moment as a fish

al niente 
mom’s piano
up for sale

autumn dawn
the apple tree
ripe with robins 

morning commute
the horizon bright
with headlights

heavy snow
I shovel the morning
out of my day

dusk
the last orange
deeper in the bowl
