THREE DEFACED BANKNOTES
THREE DEFACED BANKNOTES
I
IN THE BLUE ROOM
Sullen, silken sulks,
we drink the same rain,
spit is clean
and so is dirt.
II
AN INWARD PRAYER
Blessed may be the end at last
under the sea
below the soul
in the upside-down
Oceans above us
(all that heaven sends is rain)
III
HAIKU FOR SPRING
There is joy in things
and smiles not grins like butter
but like butterflies.
