“When you meet a man who is not a poet, please do not try and show him your poem” Myosan Eisai

Is haiku Zen?
nope
Is Zen haiku?
nope
Is the dog a dog?
yep

~

the sunrise makes my pallet
the trees are my brush
mind the painter!

~

I cannot stop
for you right now
a dove calls

~

outside my window
a slice of light penetrates
the fence

~

Bud buddha says:
“You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger”
so there

~

you call the dogs
I sit
you ask me to move
I stay
you want something
I fetch
you say come
I go
…bitching!

~

old dog licks young dog
old dog wants treat
old dog pants & paces
old dog laps water noisily
old dog has to pee often
just old dog chores
before death

~

writing haiku is like
writing on water
writing haiku is like
writing air poetry
writing haiku is like
writing
Freedom's just another word...

dig the wisdom
of an old dog
the eyes have it
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
