End of Semester Haiku

So many essays!
An Everest of words
I climb by grading.

Your blog is full of soul, Joan. I love the Sharon Olds poem, and your haiku is great.

I'm awed that you keep working on your wonderful memoir. I can't wait to read it. Really.

End of Semester Haiku, after Joan

I must emerge from
an avalanche of papers
before I beach sleep.
