Fight the good fight!
Or words oft said to that effect.
Fight the good fight,
until you note it's not quite right.
The call and object's disconnect
is just a cunning misdirect:
"Fight the good fight..."

#haiku

a hillside track: earth
hardened by a thousand hooves—
morning tea and crossword

— § —

my laptop crashes
hardware fault
leaves me ostracized

— § —

On the doorstep—
who at midnight would be standing
on the doorstep,
ringing doorbell and demanding
entry to my personal abode?
dares me rouse and incommode
on the doorstep?

#rondelet

Between us two,
he's not as bright as people claim.
Between us two,
he's pretty, but he'd prove untrue.
We share a mutual redame,
my dear; how shameful if he came
between us two.

What Is A Smile?

What is a smile?
A flash of pride you cannot hide? 
What is a smile?
A glimpse of guile? A waning while?
A mask? A lie? A plea? A guide?
A sign of how you feel inside?
What is a smile?
