Poppies, artichokes

A few haikus of mine from May 2017 — nine years ago! Now that I’ve been doing this a while, it’s fun to go back to old journals and find what I was writing about in years past around the same date.

5.4.17

what are those flowers called?

fire poppies

orange sienna forged across the hill

5.5.27

an artichoke blooms

and swells in our city yard

San Francisco farm

5.6.17

one artichoke gone

not that the thief will eat it

just drunk and stupid
