Titles Longer Than The Poems: Three Haiku


Mixing My Orientalisms With My Mafiaisms: A Haiku Koan After Further Pondering My Viewing Of The Godfather Marathon On AMC

Not risking taking gunshot
Leave the cannoli?


Of Apples And The Trees That Bore Them: Conclusions Reached On This Day Of Mourning

Funeral and wake
Doubtless, knowing their daughters,
Two wonderful men

Sun rises sun sets
Heedless of our tinkerings
I want my hour back
