Pig Truck Seattle Maximus-Minimus, iPhone photo by DRheins on Flickr.

Converted “Pig” food truck the Maximus Minimus patiently parked in a no parking zone, awaiting the hungry lunch crowds, downtown Seattle, WA.

Porking Zone:

Hog wild lunch truck

snout out and stuffed full of eats

Seattle pig out!

Reactor Actor


no prob says nuke guy

atoms are small — Japan far

don’t sweat the fallout

Spontaneous Combustion


our old dictators

pushed from propped up pedestals

people tweet revolt

 

Haikus to You


Human thoughts
Unruly children
A constant chase.

A strong breeze
Filtered by trees
Job satisfactorily done.

Tar on the roof
Punished by the sun
A vengeful stare.

The encroaching Internet
Frozen in time
Mass-destruction!

A father’s face
Wafts of memories
Good and bad.

Flying birds
Ancient routes
A repeating cycle.

too bright to see her eye whites

I lay low, then go
