Rain Chain Haiku

    winter
drizzle down
       the
  rain chain
      this
    life, yet
      slow
 and short

A Night, Forever?

show me yours
you first, no, you first ...
wrapped in moonlight
you and I, teen explorers
undress each other mentally

three words uttered ...
our bodies listening
to moonlight
as the summer grass bed
holds the shape of our night

Drifting, drifting in and out of my dream. 

My first love, now merely a number I can reach, and a door I can knock.

Why hast thou forsaken me?

In the back of a dimly lit storage room, the man in his cassock stands behind a half-naked boy, bent over.

Good Friday service
this white-haired man last to come
always first to leave
