Oh you wee little strait
I see you there
We all do
Yes you're wee but also mighty
Slip of a thing, really
You hold us together
Troubles and triumphs
You've always been there
Like a connecting rod
In all this apparatus
So what I fail to see
If we're being honest
Is if you're still mad at us
Ochre Idyls
Poems, Haiku/Tanka, Short Fictions
