one-line haiku sequence
october 1983

moon sequence

old woman's body autumn rain my body
ungluing in the forties
scotch disappearing the dr's home phone unlisted
only i know how i feel beneath the moon

a family picks through trash behind the salvation army
small print a trailer repossessed
townspeople shout at women marching for peace
dark moon a witch hunts

elizabeth cady stanton and the revising committee
'the man' scared of us
haiku: season word or plutonium
our moon's been trampled

again five dollars each to the creditors
independently poor
still no job am i meant to paint the goddess
full moon all the odor of my body
