not interested

waiting is not fun

writing stupid poems is

fun is in your mind

not interested

i must go to sleep

haiku nad you in my head

dreams will be pleasnt

and:

the fun must end now

work calls to me in the day

day time is not fun

While not all of these following poems are exactly haikus (5-7-5) or tankas (5-7-5-7-7), their spirits are....

note: I wrote these peoms and they were published in Metrosphere Magazine back in 1997...I own the copyright.

Out My Front Door

1.
I stood a bus stop
getting soaked
but somehow
it occurred to me:
rain in Sonora
is the funeral robe
of dust
and new blood
to a sickly rose

2.
My house now silent--
I think it's all right
to forget your name

3.
Ellis Island storm:
old man shouts at officals.
Prized feathers flying.

4.
Below the neon "Closed" sign,
drops of rainwater glisten like
streams of quicksilver.

5.
Out my front door
and beyond my block,
Mom left.
She said her hard-earned
solitude
would be found
two miles west
of 14th Ave.

Mac

never liked to rhyme

when confined within three lines

of syllabic hell

Dakota, that's quite an elastic haiku you,ve got there (LOL)!

not interested

work day is all done

have a beer in my right hand

starting to feel good

i found a few more i wrote
during the one sleepless
and only night
i've been inspired to write haikus.
these are not intended to be related....
i actually used FOUR different people for inspiration that night. (i wuz a busy busy girl...lol)
this i beg of you
bring a fantasy to life
take me by surprise Master Dominate
i yield to noone but you
bonds invisible lips softly parted
sharp intake hot urgent breath
wet tongue caresses

bitter sweet this truth
i now know how you see me
much to my chagrin

now i challeng thee
to a little game of wits
tell me who i am

look into my eyes
ev'rything else is fiction
see inside my soul

hm, what is the plural of haiku anyway? haiku? or haikus? lol.

SPAZ
