southbound truck thawing
leaves behind stowaway snow
distant winter storm
southbound truck thawing
leaves behind stowaway snow
distant winter storm
leveled to bare dirt
forty years debris removed
just memories left
pigeons on high wire
jockeying for position
one hovers backward
stopping at red light
composing the next haiku
the sun rose instead
waves after waves break
against the house’s creaky hull
plowing sea of sleep
