sell by today
or throw it away
make you some more
a big tub before
the trash men
come empty your tray
enough for an army
or family of five
served all to one
that old principal's wife
and she eats like a bird from benin
fold up your manners
remember your napkin
if asked to say grace
just say
thank you sweet garden
of heavenly bounty
a bountiful heaven on earth
here today
with you all
peaceful blessings
of health and great cheer
let's dig in

not longing haiku 49-55
ignorance is bliss
and yet we're still compelled to
learn at every turn
oh jesus christ god
almighty give me someone
to blame besides me
the toasty warm lives
i imagine for others
are cold & grinding
fertility drugs
blessing the rich with the curse
of the poor masses
if he could live that
long would all Holden's hair turn
gray eventually
cover your bases
with plastic foam padding &
you'll never get home
how long will you just
hide behind your bad choices
and pray for sunshine
and yet we're still compelled to
learn at every turn
oh jesus christ god
almighty give me someone
to blame besides me
the toasty warm lives
i imagine for others
are cold & grinding
fertility drugs
blessing the rich with the curse
of the poor masses
if he could live that
long would all Holden's hair turn
gray eventually
cover your bases
with plastic foam padding &
you'll never get home
how long will you just
hide behind your bad choices
and pray for sunshine
