Six Etudes

I

A haiku is a
Glass of water knocked and spilled -
An image di-stilled.

II

Rainy lullabies
The piano of the roof
Rhythms of a dream.

III

Civilization
Is a mechanical womb
Holding a dead child.

IV

Loveless evening
Saliva overflowing
An orgasmic gloom.

V

There is no love if
There's no time past or future,
Memory or will.

VI

I ran towards the
Shade of my beloved, which
Turned out to be me.
