Pollination

Haiku

.

you enter me like

a bee, sting intact, buzz off

common intention

on my teeth & lips

Haiku

.

feel the gritty edge

of unpainted stars that reach

me, just before they die

crystal

Haiku

.

two boys with blue eyes

how to choose which is deeper

perhaps choose neither

Oblivious

Haiku

.

bitter proud you sit

broken as a woman can

be, still, you exist

Non-Sexual

Haiku

.

My nakedness is

Not an invitation for

Your interference

Subdued & mature

Haiku

.

simmering hotbed

youth extinguished nourished lusts

all past; i rise refreshed

the whole idea of romantic love

Haiku

.

is so much rubbish.

my heart died. from it grew weeds

i’m so numb inside

Sabbatical

Haiku

.

forgot my razor

stroke new growth up and down

legs and underarms

he talks of his childhood

Haiku

.

the idea of this

boy with all his dreams laid out…

i fell for him then

Blackberries

Haiku

.

plucked from a hedgerow

rich sweet autumnal claret

purple stained fingers
