to Nap or Not to Nap (September 18, 2006)

Every morning
I promise my eyes a nap ...
each day — a liar.


Surprisingly cold.
I wear my denim jacket
first time since may.


I pay the price for
irresponsibly long nights—
Lisa addiction.


Fingers inform me
I resolve to let them bet.
The air has gone dry.


I crack my knuckles.
Some people despise the sound.
I can tell which ones.


They think I take notes.
My writing hand gyrating—
This haiku becomes.


Through the blinds are trees
green and yellow twirling
covering the ground.


Every girls I see
I think about her naked—
Automatically.


Journalist speaker.
Such passionate examples
and "et-cetera."
