Haiku's simple verse
Shattering and pointed like
Glass shards laced with words.
...
I looked into your window
In the darkness and I froze
My dark-eyed desert Lily
Blushed an asiatic rose
...
The loneliness of poem-writing
Lies inside the fact
That the people who would most understand them
Are the people who would least likely read them;
...
He answers, when I ask,
'I'm lonely, babe, ' and laughs
A tragic laugh, head thrown back
Mocking, with twisted irony
...
I dreamed of you last night;
We were young, vibrant and free
Hearts pounding, mouths dry and bellies hot
We laid together
...
Fly back to me, my heart
Your shadow’s dim today
So far away
...
The mermaid slowly sinks into the deep,
Down, down, in darkest depths her abode lay;
Her secrets do the endless fathoms keep.
...
I remember us three
Him and you and me
He is what he Iz
And was unaware, I think
...
I check a profile
I write a poem
I have a dream,
flashbacks.
...
The Amazon lets fly
And stops, struck
By her own arrow
Deflected by a shield
...
