Posting Two Tankas of Mine that Appear in Atlas Poetica 13

The book is available for order at Amazon. Details here.

Here's the first, I got the idea for this while waiting for the train:
 
corroded tracks
the trains no longer run
sky rust at sunset
even heaven
comes and goes


This one, I thought of while at the dock in Boracay:
 
moss has grown
our boat rots on what’s left
of the shore
nothing to sail with
to the things we used to know
