You’re the Poet, Carlita

February 12, 2009

Micah left a message on my answering machine this afternoon.  He was calling to ask about haiku.  Is it 5-7-5?  He couldn’t remember.

He said, “You’re the poet, Carlita.”

It made me smile because only Micah would call me to ask such a thing.  I miss him.  I need to get back to Machias.

    Micah is looking for help
    Assisted support to find the right voice
    With but seventeen measly words

    That was awful, but well I tried.

    Hey, that’s not bad at all.

    It turns out that Micah is writing janitorial haiku for the literary magazine at the high school where he works as…well, as a janitor, obviously. I am hoping he will send me some to read.
