Weightless white floating flecks
Sweat rolling down my chest.
A ring of stone, a cone of wood
The only things, understood.
Transformation, freed through flame
Hopefully less, remains the same.
Haiku Set
1226
On my back with mouth agape
Breathing made harder by her movements.
I do my best and swallow straight
Wanting nothing but to please my dentist.
1224
Innocuous poison
Triggered
Blood turned black.
Happiness attacked
Saddened
Abandoned hopes.
1208
Green Tulip canopy
Weathered hands cut a delicate pepper
Cicada orchestra.
Pink, soft, curving couch
Fresh brownies are tasted together
A spice that lingers.
1177
In lonely silence
Swirling vultures strike
A feast for days.
Numbed by pain
Determination falters
Darkness seeps.
In crushing pause
Love surrounds me
Accepting breath.
