Haiku

[Saltfountain]

Take a nice picture
Write some pretentious bullshit
Does this make it art?

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

The astringent taste
Of an unripe persimmon.
Me in a nutshell.

 

[onehitwanda]

The astringent taste
Of an unripe persimmon.
Me in a nutshell.

Dancers in shadow,
dark against the twilight stars -
Illicit lovers.

 

[Deadfreak]

The ladies that show
Are appreciated fully
They are very kind

 

[Saltfountain]

The ladies that show
Are appreciated fully
They are very kind

Don't you really hate
Blokes that never show but who
Complain they don't see?

 

[summer_reine]

With ash in my teeth
Poetry howling within
I stand here, again

 

[Saltfountain]

With ash in my teeth
Poetry howling within
I stand here, again

With ash in your teeth
You are smoking it all wrong
The lit end stays out

 

[Voboy]

White puff of smoke spills
Ushering new joy and peace.
Sistine be tokin'.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

A Haiku a day
Is supposed to keep the blues
Away. What say you?

 

[Deadfreak]

She is a mother
But she is still a woman
Make her curl her toes

 

[Voboy]

Futile three-pointers:
Inside the paint? That's scary.
Lack of will and grit.

 

[summer_reine]

Sunlit leaves in rain
As spring hues shift to summer
Not quite vivid yet

 

[Jocelyn_Nicole_Sawyer]

my deepest desire
play me like a piano
tickle all my keys

 

[EbersMoll]

Winter’s minor chords
Yield to summer’s crescendo,
An eternal tune.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

The song of summer
Whistles in the pollened wind
I achoo in tune.

 

[Bamagan]

Summer in the South
Your sweat has nowhere to go
But straight down your crack.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

It seems I haven't
Written a Haiku in some
Time, so here it is ...

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Once it is Summer
The cool breezes are welcome.
No sweat in this crack.

 

[Voboy]

Syllables churning:
More than seventeen, lately.
Life defies haiku.

 

[Candy_Kane54]

If Life equated
To a Haiku, thoughts would then
Be much more discrete.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

A gentle night rain.
Drops of summer memory
Made at grandma’s house.

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

Your eyes — they stop me
Stepping off the late train home.
They hold the sunrise.

 

[Helen_Highwater]

Rain peppers window
Aged single malt caresses me
With golden numbness

 

[Jackie.Hikaru]

How to feel alive:
Become a frigid ocean,
Wind-whipped and howling.

 

[Bamagan]

How to feel alive:
Become a frigid ocean,
Wind-whipped and howling.

Sounds like a pitch for
Nautical BDSM,
a sailor's delight.
