New photos: “Standing in the Soybean Field” (updated)

with 2 comments

[Updated 11 October. I fixed the link. Also, there are more photos up there now.] 1535560800_5873238e64.jpg

I took two rolls of pictures out in a soybean field a couple days ago. The best ones are up on Flickr.

Yesterday’s haiku project

without comments

The following snippets were all written yesterday. Some of them adhere to the traditional 5-7-5 structure; others do not.


This is nothing.
Wait till you see
my other poems.


How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways.
One infinity, two infinity, …


Close your eyes.
I’m going to kis you.
Ready?


Please never leave me! —
unless that’s what you really,
really, really want.


To me you are as
tall as the sky. (I mean that
metaphorically.)


Two bodies, plus two selves,
equals one body
and no selves.


Whether or not you’re
a goddess, there’s a mortal
who’d like to meet you.
