4.
Solstice in Kentucky
old men mutter: seasons
roll over dig in
5.
Preparation
goes only so far: the rest
this mud body resists
6. (broken haiku)
Today the sun shines
rebirth sings on frigid winds.
What dies? Mud bodies.

Mud Bodies: December Haiku (1-3)
1. (broken haiku)
Sunday before Christmas
high water threats
gone: the cold stays
2.
Bits of snow surfing
on the bitter winter winds
on a quiet wharf
3.
These bones echo
the river’s cutting currents
this body: a mud bank
