Floating about in
a sea of uncertainty;
hold on or let go?

that fails to cover the truth;

hardly stirs my mood.

Farewell Georgie
Technicolour girl
enriching our monochrome
existence; go well.

Pressing the flesh
Dinner engagement
a frenzy of sycophants
happy birthday Liz

Let it go
When the rage burns deep
and bloodletting starts, it’s time
to write a haiku.
