#haikufeels

If I meet my peers
I hope it’s jury duty
and not my trial

#haikufeels

I’ll frame it like this:
artists paint outside the lines
but poets? Oh hell yeah!

#haikufeels

Wow! that yellow blur?
Forsythia. There, lilacs.
Here come the roses…

#haikufeels

Pacific Rim bros
robots can see your fist bumps
now what if theirs jolt

#haikufeels

Hey magnolias!
And you too, redbuds.(whistle)
Just slow the f🌸🌺k down!

yo semblable, mon frere 🤜🤛

#haikufeels

if a sea of stars
must be enriched by moonlight
you’re…high maintenance

#haikufeels

that one hand clapping
enriched is a haiku that
slaps you in the face

#haikufeels

I was a balloon
inflated by those kisses
until she let go
now I fly about helpless
suddenly a no-see-um

#haikufeels

the boiler rooms pump
and inflate til they dump - then
pop go the weasels

#haikufeels

loves flicker in dreams
like fresh dug ruins, remains
buried by the years

#haikufeels

“Open an I.R.A,…?”
“Oh really, with what?” I ask,
holding my pitchfork

😄🙏

#haikufeels

the wan sun affirms
the indisposed stock market
buy glow and sell bright?

#haikufeels

blue mountain valley
channel slowing to a pool
mayfly cloud trout swirl

haikufeels

“Just turn the channel?”
is easier said than done…
Ah Ha! Tin foil hat.

#haikufeels

as shadows deepen
as the beasts begin to prowl
fire is now your friend

🤣

#haikufeels

I advise old folks
“Listen up, whippersnappers!”
still works - IF you smile.

🥰🙏

#haikufeels

haiku writer’s prayer
Lord grant me this one request
an extra syllable

#haikufeels

tankers lift anchors
raucous gulls launch from sand bars
post modern peace doves

#haikufeels

remember those days
they called it a “happening”
🌸 flowers in our hair 🌼

#haikufeels

Truth is soft spoken
but, ignore her and she WILL
punch you in the face

#haikufeels
#tanka

give a man a gun
and he will find a target
make us all one too
bang…threefourfive seven ten
momma we’re all pigeons now

#haikufeels

don’t latch on to creeds
it’s better to find hope in
a smile and a kiss

I drifted down the stream
of your seminal conscious in a drunken boat its ram bow butting the monkey howl haunted shores logic running wild like twisty vines strangling
the forest until it croaked its adulterous secret…
butterflies yes! butterflies.
💛🌦️🤍❣️

#haikufeels

as the drug kicked in
I realized I’d never seen
my self with real eyes

#haikufeels

Kowloon barroom brawl
frigate sailors ejected
blue willow shore leave

#haikufeels

springtime never fails
late frost and freakish snowfall
such a drama queen
