Haiku Heights



her name is Ocean
the kids at school laugh at her
her folks are hippies




on the flats roof top
we pretend we are dancing
by the cool ocean


she likes ocean views
washing day is a pleasure
chez shack on the beach



no one is worth it
don't do it,the best revenge
be happy and live!


"i have an ocean
of tears inside of me please
i just want to breathe"

 Michael Peterson's words in 2011

    3. I buy one lottery ticket a year...I enjoy spending the imaginary win but the best thing about it is to realise how little I desire now! That is what I tell myself at least:)
