cats chase laser dots
in pursuit of happiness
my life’s metaphor
Tag: haiku for cats

taught my cats poker
but they can’t help lashing tails
when dealt winning hands

young jay flutters down
inches from a feral cat
one in every flock
297
roses of summer
simmering on a nightstand
scarlet and shadows
291
disheveled, sleeping
on a curb, grips the bottle
of sweetened cold tea
289
you’ve woven your web
where I will pour a bucket
the great flood is nigh
281
cats on the table
scolding and pushing them off
what is more futile?
276
his long curling tail
wraps around his forepaws
fur ankle warmers
271
all I hear are clocks
and snoring cats– no dramas
good to be alone
267/s
thrushes trill and swing
to birdland boogie woogie
sings eight to the bar

people in earnest
debate what happiness is–
cats disdain to say
242
a chittering sound
raccoons make reservations
au club des ordures
240 rewrite
a bank takes away
an elderly poet’s home
fights back with limericks
