Haiku and Tonka Poems:
The caps in my pants
They're precious little diamonds
Waiting to be picked
†
The walls are free
Freedom to experiment
Therefore I am free
†
The night fog rolls in
The metal giants weep with rust
Meditative high
†
Petals fall in hand
The noon dew and vibrant red
Burns a hole through heart
†
Look down to see sky
Reflections of light through pond
The rippling clouds
†
Graffiti's last stand
The semi-wildstyle burners
The ultimate font
†
A dog trailing behind
Making love on a hilltop
Under the Cresent moon
†
The bar has structure
Support replaces envy
The local scene wins
†
Cold and icy fall
The village people make love
Under the lazy sun
†
Paint and inspire
The law has no place in art
God sprays through our tips
†
Dews on a branch
Natures tears rolls off the limbs
While the flowers drink
†
The cold winter tree
Sun beaming radiantly
The leaves are missing
†
The stream flowing upward
Like leaves back onto the branch
I feel young again
†
Found solace in the shade
The lizard changes colors
Under the tree, we sat
†
The wall has found me
Through painting I find myself
Then the others look for us
†
Five birds flying low
Swiftly through the morning fog
Behind the trees they sing
†
Poverty Stricken
They see me not when I pass
Spare some change brother?
†
The urban street lamps
Our dark sun giving us light
All up in my biz
†
Death becomes her soon
The Cadmium Blue waiting room
The cold reaches in
-or-
Death becomes her son
The Cadmium Blue flying room
The cold soul grabs her
†
Form follows function
Old Chinese calligraphy
Loose and Lawlessness
†
Hot spring day with breeze
Flower shop owned by two brothers
Eating hamburgers
†
Morning fog rolling
Atop of houses peeking through
Childhood memories
†
Thirsty with cusps hands
I sip from the cold stream
Refreshingly whole
†
The cherry blossoms
Swaying against the warm breeze
Red against White making Pink
†
Man smiles next to women
A Hippy and a Chinese girl
He asks for paper
†
Sandy morning eyes
Pouring milk into a bowl
Eating cereal
†
The shadows moving
Across the shinny wooden floor
Warming up the room
†
The Monk drawing caps
Fantastic mystic letters
The kids who paint walls
†
Amazing children
Creating an art culture
Risking their lives
†
Colors and patterns
Twisting, interconnecting bars
Urban folk art
†
Rushing cold morning
My big orange cat purring
Sleeping next to me
†
My cat has wild stripes
Curled up like an orange shrimp
Crooked tail and all
†
Waiting forever
the 5 kittens have been born
and they're all orange!
†
On it's back, stretched out
My cat near the window sil
Big orange and glowing
†
Freezing winter nights
The cat rests near the heater
While I freeze to death
†
Freezing in my room
4 sheets with clothes on my head
Called PG&E
†
The cold winds blowing
Glass walls on the corner room
Freezing winter nights
†
Warm, fresh and tender
Millions of kisses to come
My sweet young flower
†
For a star, a kiss
Being a far, missing you
Hold my pillows close
†
Early mid afternoon
the weather was cold then hot
My favorite kind
†
Walking till tired
Sleeping under the redwood Tree
Picked fruits on the way
†
Riding train to work
Getting long stares from people
My boss picks me up
Tanka Poems
the ice cold morning
laying in my satin sheets
holding my lover
making love to her again
wising it was you instead
†
lazy warm summer
The yellowish ocher dusk
no wind on my back
the hairs on my skin moves about
in the stillness, the zen-ness
†
tried to forget you
ever since we went apart
I miss you dearly
I cant stop the visuals
million kisses fill my mind
†
leaves are coming down
entering a small job fair
I'm getting nervous
reaching out for a hand shake
It is good to have a job
†
The hot summer nights
the air is still near the pool
sweating people stare
they gather and not say much
but when they do it's little
†
saving energy
consumption by the fire
mood enhancing drugs
like cats soaking up the sun
like dogs running on the beach
