how do you
put food on the table?
she murmurs ...
her tears come between me
and my attic view of life
Note: I wonder if the following tanka might work better as a sequence, titled A Life in Words?
the garbage bin
overflows with crumpled balls
of paper...
looking out the window
I see winter stars blinking
A Handful of Stones, February 22, 2011
what's the use
of your poetry chapbook?
steam rises
from his mouth
to his glasses
Ribbons, 7:4, Winter 2011
how do you
put food on the table?
she murmurs ...
her tears come between me
and my attic view of life
NeverEnding Story, December 20, 2017
snowy night ...
after the poetry reading
I walk for hours
like a man
with someplace to go
Paper Wasp, 19:4, Summer 2013
