Haikus.

A plastic bottle
is like a Mafia snitch:
melts under pressure.

A swallow settles
on the edge of katana:
I kill all but one.

A robin chirrups
atop a thicket of hedge:
winter draws closer.

Ugly parking lot:
snow covers its grey eyes white;
all is become one.

Circling the green,
a pavement of paving stones
swallows the ants whole.

Effervescent Coke
inspires gas at twin ends -
smells describe smiles.

He stands alone, tree
above him; he is pensive
as a cat in grass.

A darkling chapel
hiding its secrets in words
of light, window open.

A brown carpet of
fallen leaves: grace still contained:
mulch will make anew.

A shimmering lake;
its surface crystalline like
a light eye of depth.
