marlene mountain
one-line haiku sequence
january 1993

 

rain on rain

spring rain her ribs arm and nose broken but not their home
summer rain a daughter steps in front takes a hard fist
fall rain he carefully explains his mother's eye her clumsiness
winter rain 'till death do us part' she up and shoots him
