Haiku poems....in no real order....
allowing deep thought
gives way to pledges that squelch
the dregs of my heart


Dylan Thomas died
while doing what he so loved
consuming his muse


poison tastes so sweet
good health is moderation
life is one large flask


misogynism
from the past to the present
gotta love Saint Paul


my socks are dirty
tired of walking in filth
but not too tired


some people hate feet
if attached to certain legs
I hate them as well


The meek inherit?
The rich get turned on their heads?
Pipe dreams are just that.


condone drinking wine
if only for your stomach
to taste what life is


when one shot won’t do
reinventing the cannon
is necessary

think i might do these more often....

Keep flying to the sun with these gargoyle wings.

Enjoyed the read ... Haiku/Senryu are a great form of exercise in writing~
