our apocalypse
once in ultra slow motion
now on fast forward
—Terri Guillemets

our apocalypse
once in ultra slow motion
now on fast forward
—Terri Guillemets
in this day and age
dealing with health insurance
worst disease of all
—Terri Guillemets
“All complaints about life today will be ignored unless they are submitted in the format of elegant haiku poetry.”
my life is a mess
but this moment is perfect
my life is perfect
—Terri Guillemets
moonlit winter trees
bare branches paint gray shadows
ghostly risen roots
—Terri Guillemets
the moon and plum tree
make flow’ry springtime shadows—
lovers of the night
—Terri Guillemets
it’s smart as can be
things that make sense in our dreams
when we wake — insane
—Terri Guillemets
