euphoria rocks

sound speeding past us

decked in stoned-light-headedness

burst-out-happyness

.

haiku

ignite last night

my hair smells of wood

smoke of your lips lingers could

spark any moment

.

haiku

me bee you love

when me love every

aspect of me under sun

me glow under skin

.

haiku

the one

i divorced instead

of being

blessed

to die young

to escape

neglect

.

haiku

like a prayer

afternoon sun slants

adores polished floor

house plants caressed

stretch like cats

.

haiku

.

17 syllables, tumbling in errant formation, loving rumbling disarray

amen

underneath

two oaks still stand

though older,

split apart,

ravaged

roots entwine

in quiet

.

haiku

nostalgia – unturned

i rest a hand on

dimpled bulb of door – handle

fondle brass of past

n.b

nostalgia meaning : our pain

.

there is a tendency to return to pain. painful memories can be an addiction.

we speak of them often, draw them back into our existence, repeatedly, why…?

what does this justify…?

what if we left them in the past and staying in the present, looked to the future. Joy…? Peace…? Forgiveness…? Gratitude…?

ahhhhhh… ! mmmmmmm …!

inks

stillness returns on

skins of pools of streetlights and

rills of blackened glooms

haiku

infinitum, innit

Do you want to live forever?

i do i do i

do i do infinitum………………………………………….

eternal spirit

haiku

ébloui

new life in the dead

of winter sunlight surrounds

the leaves as he leaves
