    In her bright temples
    pilgrims with Prada handbags
    paying their tithes
    Smoked beef on rye bread
    Dunn's, Schwartz's or Reuben's Deli
    Sweet or hot mustard?

    A call from my son
    Rare that I hear his voice now
    Making bad choices

    Why is it that phones
    Make love come through timid but
    Magnify anguish?

    Haikus are easy.
    Some just don't make any sense.

    I have to admit
    I was a bit offended
    For my poor Guinness.

    Guinness is goodness
    A glass improved by contents
    Still glass when empty

    If like continues
    I would say it is time to
    Up medication
