Eric V. "El Coyote"
 

 

 

 

Haiku

 

Stoic—
Boulder…
How old are you?

 

 

Old stove—
Not a coal left
This morning

 

 


morning star
blinking on the horizon
a far off ship

 

 

far off lights
each one
a little home

 

 


Spigot
Dripping
Facing the sea

 

 

heavenly body—
the constellations
of her sequin dress

 

 

hula girls—
eucalyptus trees
swaying in the wind

 

 

hot rocks—
the snakes
are meditating

 

 

twilight—
loons crooning
in the flood plains

 

 

lost and found—
somewhere
a child is scolded

 

 

Fresh—
Pine trees at dawn

 

 

Pins and needles—
Barefoot
Beneath the pine

 

 

All night—
A lone cricket
In the opera house

 

 

Look closer
I can see the dogwood
Breathing

 

 

Tour bus—
Thirty framed faces
Staring

 

 

Piano keys—
A wino
Shoots me a smile
