Jaiku (jail haiku) Haiku 2014 Sun warms the wings after flying near the jail crimson razor wire. ---- Sparrow sits and stares atop the stainless steel fence galvanized blood. ---- Migration shadows as I stand staring from jail. ---- Along the jail fence starlings hang on razor wire stare at us. ---- Just before dawn past the old jail fence starling migration. ---- Pulling the last shade of night heading south a million starlings. ---- Along the fence the gravity of snow reveals barbed wire. ---- Sleeping on the floor three to a cell at Maplehurst sounds the guards make. ---- I hope I never have to hear these sounds
