24 | Visiting Haiku Poets by Kimberly Kuchar


gazing at three moons—
visiting haiku poets
drone incessantly

countless worlds—
he travels in search of
his white whale

Earth’s night sky
with its solitary moon
feels empty

on her necklace—
a nano-engraved map
to her home planet

in my soup—
black peppercorns
or Flaxgor eggs?
