Fall Haiku
Better late than never. Continuing my tradition of posting seasonal haiku, here are my submissions for Autumn 2009. The frost is on the pumpkin. The days are shorter. It’s a banner year for acorns and the leaves are falling at a rapid pace. Time to winterize the house, find your sweaters, and remember how much fun it actually is to unbutton that special someone.
I.
The trick in autumn
Is removing more clothes. The
treat is obvious.
II.
Your parents wonder
why your hair is full of leaves.
So are my boxers.
III.
Mice in the attic
I pause, mid-stroke, listening.
You protest. They gnaw.
IV.
I sip hot cider.
You sigh, rope binding your breasts.
How ‘bout them apples?
V.
So many leaves to rake.
You bend, your ass tight in jeans.
This can wait. Let’s fuck.
VI.
The time changes. One
hour extra, one hour repeats.
Get naked. Fall back.
