This one is a tiny landscape with a dramatic sky I managed to photograph just before a storm. The clouds were deep and dark yet there was still warm sun reflecting on the ground.

It was beautiful! And the storm was heavy.

Put Those Haiku Down...

these are the Glengarry
koans, and you can't have them-
not without waking

you drove a Hyundai
to temple. I walked barefoot
and sold the sky

coffee is for those
who have emptied both their cup
and their ego
