Long time no see in my poetry realm, I know, but here’s a set of haiku poems inspired by recent and not-so-recent life events.
Iron beside gold
Recedes into the background
Mere utility
—
Tried but unnoticed
You’re so-and-so’s sibling, right?
Unidentified
—
Behind the spotlight
Are shadow places where those
Like me work unseen
—
“I always win.”
You always do. Food for thought
A tough cut of truth
—
Competition? No
But maybe I didn’t know
Until I had lost
—
My local fifteen
Will come page two, column two
