Haiku! Geoffrey A. Landis

The 5th Not-Exactly-Annual Haiku Death Match is only 5 days away! To celebrate the countdown to the haiku contest, for the las two weeks I have featured a haiku (or senryu) from each of the deathmatch contestents.
Here is the last of the eight haiku warriors: Geoffrey Landis (... that would be me):

Carved stone gods
no one worships now
Still they watch and wait

In an earlier post, I think I may have said that the haiku death match was Friday April 8. April 8th is, of course, a Saturday, not a Friday. http://www.heightsarts.org/portfolio-item/5th-haiku-death-match/
