Self-portrait: 9 Haiku

1

In the dark
painting my self-portrait
wonder how I look

2

Can't decide
where to breathe --
sky's too big

3

A new battery
to keep the clock
busy waiting

4

Lost my feet --
must have
wandered off

5

After the leak
ironing
Hadrian's memoirs

6

Lake -- the molecules
are taking turns
being the surface

7

Debussy
turned into a cloud
and forgot to evaporate

8

Most of them
too faint to be noticed --
fishes smiles

9

Eiffel Tower
hollow so that perfumes
can get through
