The rasping cry of
Lust! Lust! Lust! -- a desperate
cicada clamor.

Moist, warm, and drowsy,
Tomatoes engorge
In summer's caress.

My interview suit
looks so professional, but
it's sweaty inside.

Murmurs surround me
The sounds of workers working
The noise provokes guilt

Haikus are easy,
But sometimes they don't make sense.

Refrigerator
Seems so redundant when there's
Frigid air outdoors.

A comedian,
A noble occupation,
Making strangers laugh.
Can't help but ask why?
You'll always be remembered...
Mitchell Lee, goodbye.

Glad I'm home right now.
This house is kept warm unlike
My school apartment.

Have to get up off my ass
Couch potato's blues.

To be perfectly
Honest with you I have not
Watched TV in months.

Use the water glass
to see beneath the surface
of your bubblebath:
sunken dinky toys,
your sister's toes that wiggle,
in the underworld.
