.

I find it fitting
the berries of mistletoe
are filled with poison

Keep flying to the sun with these gargoyle wings.

Joe,

It’s wise to remember, that anything having to do with the mistletoe plant can be poisonous.

When I was in the eighth grade, some damned nervy teacher kissed me on the lips under the mistletoe.  She just couldn’t resist. Yuck!

Nice haiku.

Bobby
