Shared HAIKU ! Join in, it's fun!

[FacialFracture]

Wonderful to start,
but depressing by the end:
Impotence is tough.

[mazHur]

wonderful to start
seemed there was no end to it
until the chair broke !


Impotence is tough
it is the death of pleasure
you better watch out !

[TheFifthElement]

until the chair broke
she was lost in a moment
of pure ecstasy

[mazHur]

of pure ecstasy
she died on the chair and said
I love you, darling.

[FacialFracture]

you better watch out
you better not cry you bet-
ter not pout, I'm tell-

ing you why, Santa
Clause is coming to town! (I'm
so sorry for this.)

[mazHur]

Whooooooof !

[TheFifthElement]

so sorry for this,
we seem to be getting all
tangled together

[mazHur]

tangled together
we lie in the meadows green
and look at the sky

[Etienne]

you better watch out
you better not cry you bet-
ter not pout, I'm tell-

ing you why, Santa
Clause is coming to town! (I'm
so sorry for this.)

That "tell-
ing" was pretty cheap :p

[FacialFracture]

That entire "effort" of mine was, admittedly, pretty cheap.

[mazHur]

actually the girls don't like it

the girls don't like it
cheap stuff is not liked by them
say them something nice!

[TheFifthElement]

and look at the sky
it bleeds colour; a steady
drip, drip, drip of red

[mazHur]

drip, drip, drip of red
trickles from the blue sky
who shoved his knife there?

[FacialFracture]

Who shoved his knife there,
into the haunch of a hog?
The Rabbi will cry.

[mazHur]

The Rabbi will cry
in a language unknown
understood by none

fiercely banging his head
against the wall till he's dead

[mazHur]

The Rabbi will cry,
wail against the Wailing Wall
but to no effect

[jon1jt]

but to no effect
other than to fancy me--
The lake weighing light

[Riesa]

the lake weighing light
spilled some off the scale, and found
blue weighs more than red

[jon1jt]

blue weighs more than red.
Perhaps the scale was broken,
and red is better

[crazefest456]

the red is better
though the scale, biased.
Conceived by two is,

[Susan Sonnen]

conceived by two is
one, an entire entity
brought forth through their love

[mazHur]

brought forth through their love
they gave birth to the basket
kids suckling at her

[kiz_paws]

Kids suckling at her
such a sweet dependency -
the mother goat smiles

[jon1jt]

the mother goat smiles,
her little bells jingle. I
used to love horses.

[kiz_paws]

used to love horses
till the allergies started
pass the tissues, please

[jon1jt]

Pass the tissues, please.
Girl watching seafarer part--
in beaten hands, tears.

[Il Penseroso]

in beaten hands tears
are shallow pools, relief lapsed
without reflection.

[crazefest456]

without reflection.
We will meet some other time,
for now let's leave, dry,

[kiz_paws]

for now let's leave, dry,
happy and full of content
for the time being

[crazefest456]

for the time being
--Look! it has begun to snow!
There the departed

[kiz_paws]

There the departed
left footsteps in the fresh snow
we can find you now...

[TheFifthElement]

we can find you now
walking amongst the clouds, the
rain falling like tears

[firefangled]

rain falling like tears
green shoot joins two distant worlds
dark root, open sky

[symphony]

Rain, falling like tears,
giving me some unearthly
pleasure. Sinful? No?

[symphony]

Ah i was late. Hmmm... fixable.


Dark root, open sky,
and a splatter of green bliss
lying in between.

Pleasure. Sinful? No?
Why waste our precious time, though,
lying in between?

[TheFifthElement]

lying in between
two bodies, the newborn kicks
seeking attention.

[Susan Sonnen]

seeking attention,
last autumn rose still clinging,
stiffened petals nod

[firefangled]

stiffened petals nod,
like a dance, the step changes,
look away, it's time

[FacialFracture]

Look away, it's time:
Gloved hands hold the violent drill;
I still taste fluoride.

[mazHur]

I still taste fluoride
because I need strong poison
facial fracture kills!

[jon1jt]

facial fracture kills!
running into a closed door
to flee a strange kiss.

[mazHur]

to flee a strange kiss
to save me from fractured face
the mask kissed my cheeks

[_JadeRain_]

The mask kissed my cheeks
Happy you cannot see through
My lovely facade

[mazHur]

My lovely facade,
changed at the rough hands of time,
wants but just your love

[FacialFracture]

My lovely facade
Hides peeled plaster and dead pipes;
I am an old house.

[mazHur]

''I am an old house'',
remarked the facial fracture
but he was too late !

[FacialFracture]

But (s)he was too late!
Again, beaten by MazHur!
I'll bet he's gloating.

[mazHur]

I'll bet he's gloating
or may be he is bloating
after the fracture !

[jon1jt]

After the fracture !
the world becomes cell-phoney,
so I gorge on Art

[mazHur]

'so I gorge on Art'
kept on howling Dracula
until he was cold!

[FacialFracture]

I would gorge on Art,
but for the indigestion;
cartoons are more fun.

[mazHur]

cartoons are more fun
fracture doesn't mean comic
that is just for fun!

[jon1jt]

until he was cold!
his wept face of desire
Oh silly poet

[mazHur]

Oh silly poet
you touch my heart with your words
I love you so much

[FacialFracture]

"I love you so much"?
Oh, am I interrupting
something I shouldn't?

[mazHur]

something I shouldn't?
that's none of my biz at all
I'm a broken face !

[FacialFracture]

(haha)

I'm a broken face,
but my fingers still work fine;
typing is easy.

[mazHur]

typing is easy
but I don't find words to type
my fingers are sprained

[FacialFracture]

my fingers are sprained,
I wish jon would come back, his
haikus are high-class.

[mazHur]

haikus are high-class
but how can you comprehend
with a tiny brain

[FacialFracture]

With a tiny brain?
I've been told that it's average,
but maybe they lied.

[mazHur]

but maybe they lied
lying may be fun for them
but I am confused

[FacialFracture]

but I am confused...
are both of us perplexed?
Maybe I should stop.

[mazHur]

Maybe I should stop
or may be we both stopped
and gave others chance

[AdoreroDio]

And gave others chance,
though it's not you fault you write
and that they do not

[mazHur]

and that they do not
write, they may be busy
or having some fun

[AdoreroDio]

or having some fun
out and about or maybe
they're at school right now

[mazHur]

they're at school right now
God knows what they are reading
the book lies with me

[jon1jt]

the book lies with me
Says I will find you in your
sundress...the book closes.

[jon1jt]

sundress...the book closes.
Be my endless visitor
mornings of long looks

[jon1jt]

mornings of long looks
in the middle of the sky,
stars buried in fists

[jon1jt]

stars buried in fists,
The North star my seductress,
stalking galaxies

[jon1jt]

stalking galaxies,
blue jewels, I'm knee deep in sky
come over and play!

[kiz_paws]

come over and play
I have sharps and you have flats
rock the eighty-eights!

[littlewing53]

rock the eighty-eights
because tomorrow it's gone
morning comes too soon

[mazHur]

morning comes too soon
Ah, these short short summer nights
too brief for lovers

[jon1jt]

too brief for lovers
Beat fifties, hippie sixties.
Let's start a decade!

[kiz_paws]

Let's start a decade
the recipe can't be hard
turn up the music

[jon1jt]

turn up the music
dance the mambo under stars
Say thanks for the sky.

[kiz_paws]

Say thanks for the sky
sink your toes into the sand
smile to be alive :p

[TheFifthElement]

smile to be alive,
in lips upturned your sorrows
may be forgotten.

[mazHur]

may be forgotten
but how? those days of love are
my only treasure !

[symphony]

my only treasure
are those bits of distant green,
now that my tree's gone...

[mazHur]

now that my tree's gone...
now that I am standing in
the scorched sun alone !

[symphony]

the scorched sun alone
couldnt warm me enough, so i
had to come to you...

[mazHur]

had to come to you...
as you are my last resort
when storms choke my breath

[_JadeRain_]

When Stroms choke my breath
With many relentless gale
I struggle on home

[kiz_paws]

I struggle on home
a place where I can be me
to savour rainbows

[littlewing53]

to savour rainbows
momentary existence
stop time from moving

[mazHur]

stop time from moving
we are no more ourselves
we are lost in love

[symphony]

We are lost in love
with this silence between us.
Hush! Let the winds sing...

[mazHur]

Hush! Let the wind sing
until the show finishes
and nature revives

[kiz_paws]

And nature revives
precious little rain puddles
opening the skies

[mazHur]

opening the skies
is not like opening zippers
of a parachute!

[kiz_paws]

:wave: Hi, Maz!

Of a parachute --
silken wings, please take me home
and in one piece, too! ;)

[mazHur]

and in one piece, too,
the lovers shall be burried
in one sheet, one ditch

[kiz_paws]

In one sheet, one ditch
grew a patch of cornflowers
and the Earth was glad

[jon1jt]

an the Earth was glad
I heard it sing fa la la
Oh you know the rest

[AdoreroDio]

oh, you know the rest
states the old story teller
and closes the book

[Pendragon]

and closes the book
eldritch story now complete
Good Night! Pleasant Dreams!

[TheFifthElement]

Good Night! Pleasant Dreams!
Impatient children wriggle,
waiting 'til sleep comes

[mazHur]

waiting 'til sleep comes
or my beloved shows up
my heart throbs in love

[TheFifthElement]

my heart throbs in love
my eyes propose a question
of this, and of that...

[mazHur]

of this, and of that...
talk no more, my love just come
straight into my arms!

[Il Penseroso]

straight into my arms
to the cradle in my breast
come, gently rocking.

[jon1jt]

IP's IN TOWN, YEEE HAA! Good to see you, my friend

Come, gently rocking
To the North, stoic, cold, stone.
The part we answer

[Il Penseroso]

the part we answer,
brushed ahead by what we want,

[jon1jt]

OKAY, take care, good luck on the finals!!! Write poems across the sky too!!

O for mortals not to be
loved, Bodhi trees call.

[ktd222]

"loved," Bodhi trees call,
"who am I?" "Or rather, why
am I called Bodhi?"

[symphony]

am i called bodhi?
please excuse my ignorance
on my own wise name!

[jon1jt]

on my own wise name!
Jon! Jon who? Jon he? Jon, me?
A small wind, there goes!

[symphony]

A small wind, there goes.
A dewdrop aerifies, flies,
hued with the whiteness...

(hued with/in/to ??? :confused: )

[jon1jt]

hued with the whiteness
painting of cows in cafe.
Me, at the window.

[Janine]

me, at the window -
fractured autumn forboding;
shadows, burns, deep scars.

[symphony]

shadows, burns, deep scars,
the ups and downs in his face--
eclipsed by those eyes...

[mazHur]

shadows, burns, deep scars,
the ups and downs in his face--
eclipsed by those eyes...

eclipsed by those eyes
the bride lifted up her veil
and fell off the bed!

[symphony]

and fell off the bed
screaming for help, to escape
eccentric nightmares ...

[mazHur]

eccentric nightmares
seemed to be my ordained fate
until you met me

[jon1jt]

eccentric nightmares
I'm lying in room 666, the
Poetry Motel

[symphony]

until u met me
i was stuck in cloud 8, just
one quantum jump left.

Poetry Motel
just a block from Physics hutch,
one quantum jump left.

[mazHur]

*one quantum jump left,
she fell right into my lap
my cute pussy cat !

[Laindessiel]

My cute pussy cat!
Scratches the walls and the yarn.
And even my face!

[mazHur]

And even my face
smote with Draconian looks
follows my victim

[Il Penseroso]

follow my victim
to sere plots, edge of grass where
rain sinks tractionless.

[jon1jt]

rain sinks tractionless
-more when I lie in my tent
Why does rain prowl?

[Il Penseroso]

thanks! means a lot coming from you

unnervingly electric
with its wetness flash?

[jon1jt]

One mo' I'm between bites!!!! lol!


with its wetness flash?
the naked mirror, my thought--

[symphony]

the hiding and seeking sun
will now chase the clouds...

[mazHur]

and pave the way for the Sun
Goddess to descend

[jon1jt]

Goddess to descend
Where else should they go but down,
if this is not home.

[Il Penseroso]

if this is not home
I go, become a leaf and
shimmer with new dew.

[mazHur]

if this is not home
better look for another
house and make a home

[Captain Pike]

the Universe is
a single particle in
every one of us

[kiz_paws]

Every one of us
needs to have our quiet times
to refuel the Soul

[jon1jt]

to refuel the Soul:
Simple as getting more folks
to read poetry.

:p:

[kiz_paws]

To read poetry
is to step outside the box
and let your mind breathe

[Il Penseroso]

and let your mind breathe
sulk in a corner and count
backward with small sobs.

[jon1jt]

backward with small sobs,
hiccupped and stifled a sob.
Stop, you're pathetic!!

[Il Penseroso]

howdy


stop, you're pathetic!
buzzard terrier hunched with
willful hungry eyes.

[symphony]

willful hungry eyes
turn to wailful angry eyes
cant fend off the glares

[mazHur]

cant fend off the glares
of the stalking lioness
of the 'Sunder Bans!'

[symphony]

Lionesses hardly loiter around the Sundarbans, maz, if thats what u mean. Its tigresses that rule.

Of the Sunder Bans
the lingering steps are heard
in yellows and blacks...

[mazHur]

all yellows and blacks
are my favorite colors
of tigress darling

[kiz_paws]

Of tigress darling
those irresistable eyes
of glowing green gems

[jon1jt]

hey, nice one ya got there!

of glowing green gems
grandfather's shoes, a sole man:
'Art'isan means Soul

[kiz_paws]

'Art'isan means Soul
for a select group who see
and try to share Truth

[mazHur]

and try to share Truth
even though you cannot see
its mechanism

[TheFifthElement]

its mechanism
is complex, intricate as
the subconscious mind

[mazHur]

the subconscious mind
rides pillion with the conscious
mind in search of you

[kiz_paws]

Mind in search of you
never finding, always lost
oh where can you be?

[karo]

mind in search of you
you remain just out of reach
an adventure sought

[kiz_paws]

An adventure sought
the lion sharpens his claws
and keeps his eyes low

[Il Penseroso]

and keeps his eyes low,
grounded, mesmerized by dirt
and a shallow past.

[kiz_paws]

And a shallow past
haunted me longer than you
now that you are gone

[Pensive]

Now that you are gone
My computer keyboard seems
To cry, virtual friend.

[Wyoecho]

to cry, virtual friend
but weep not for the gateway
opens to the east

[mazHur]

opens to the east
the door of superstitions
and leads to the West

[kiz_paws]

And leads to the West
the North wind howling away
strong and icy cold

[Il Penseroso]

strong and icy cold,
black glass covers with a shine
winter highways.


drive safe!

[kiz_paws]

Winter highways
form tartan visuals 'round here
as seen by airplanes

[Il Penseroso]

as seen by airplanes
trees sprout in rigid bundles
held in sturdy frames.

[kiz_paws]

Held in sturdy frames
the chickens poked their beaks out
so as to escape

[symphony]

so as to escape
the gilded trammel, the clouds
stirred away just now...

(not just now, but this happened this morning, and left me feeling so special 'cuz i could see it! :D )

[mazHur]

stirred away just now
the devilish measles mine
your magical glance

[Il Penseroso]

your magical glance
a limpid seeming snare, caught
I shatter the glass.

[motherhubbard]

I shatter the glass
don't come in here without shoes
you could cut your feet

[kiz_paws]

You could cut your feet
your hands your face your body
my words are sharp now

[mazHur]

my words are sharp now
and may cut deep into you
if I told the truth

[kiz_paws]

If I told the truth
would you cover your face and
make simple noises?

[crazefest456]

if I told the truth
My stark self would listen to
silence in my bosom



STUPID ME!
(skip)

[kiz_paws]

Craze, I liked yours better! :thumbs_up

Silence in my bosom
but the pounding of my heart
broke sound barriers

[mazHur]

make simple noises
if you do not have the throat
to sing me a song

[kiz_paws]

To sing me a song
of lovers first meeting
the kiss that ensued

[mazHur]

the kiss that ensued
turned into a strong mana
too hard to control

[kiz_paws]

"Too hard to control,
these young whippersnappers",
the old man stormed on.

[mazHur]

the old man stormed on
the lady fish with his hook
and tackle at home

[crazefest456]

the old man stormed on.
While his daughter leaped
towards butterflies

Igottastopdoingthis :)

and tackle at home
the bear cubs tustle on a
warm bed of crisp leaves

[kiz_paws]

Towards butterflies
is where my stomach headed
when he walked by me!

[mazHur]

towards butterflies
raise not your dirty eyes
they may turn you blind

[mazHur]

when he walked by me
i felt like a storm pass by
in my veins and nerves

[kiz_paws]

In my veins and nerves
there is this happy substance
can I wink at you?

[mazHur]

can I wink at you?
what a silly question to
ask, just go ahead!

[crazefest456]

can I wink at you?
so that when you turn away,
I'll wish you were never here

yay! I wasn't slow this time! woohoo!

I forfeit this one, though (forgot to add wish)

[mazHur]

I'll you were never here
and all I saw was a dream
with a vacuum around

[kiz_paws]

With a vacuum around
there is no time for loving --
throw the darn thing out!

[mazHur]

throw the darn thing out
it barks too much and doesn't
let me sleep all night

[kiz_paws]

Let me sleep all night
in the arms of my lover
and my dog can too :lol:

[mazHur]

and my dog can too
love her ***** as i love you
nothing funny, dear.

[kiz_paws]

Nothing funny, dear
except those ear hairs dangling
I'll get the scissors

[mazHur]

I'll get the scissors
a you will sew me a dress
like no dress has been!

[kiz_paws]

Like no dress has been
clinging to her shapely legs
as the wind teased by

[mazHur]

as the wind teased by
the hidden energy flowed
out of her body

[Il Penseroso]

out of her body,
sleepless lids and murmuring
thighs white in the moon.

[mazHur]

thighs white in the moon.
burning with inborn desire
to lift up the world

[schadenfreude]

To lift up the world
I sent up a prayer dove
battered by the winds.

[mazHur]

battered by the winds
I fly higher and higher
to places unknown.

[symphony]

to places unknown
my letter flies, to unseen
Gods that never were

...

[crazefest456]

God that never were
born in the throes of hell;
though a demon concieved

[mazHur]

though a demon conceived
and let loose to seduce you
to evil on earth

[kiz_paws]

To evil on Earth
I scatter the wildflowers
and hide the sorrow

[crazefest456]

and hide the sorrow
of what 'morrow brings to you
no sense in regrets

[mazHur]

craze, you write well,,, !

no sense in regrets
fall in love again and see
what difference it makes.

[crazefest456]

awww...nah:blush:

what difference it makes?
None, you say, dear, whilst your eyes
in musky air, stray

[mazHur]

awww...nah:blush:

what difference it makes?
None, you say, dear, whilst your eyes
in musky air, stray

this is lovely,,,perfect ! no need to blush now !;)

in musky air, stray
my eyes searching for you
stop this hide and seek !

[crazefest456]

stop this hide and seek!
Mother doesn't realize her
children dance to fray

[mazHur]

children dance to fray
but not the sweet seventeens
who are made to dance!

[crazefest456]

who are made to dance!
what force make them be inclined
to twirl foolishly

[mazHur]

to twirl foolishly
is wrong; lovers twirl madly
at the height of love

[crazefest456]

at the height of love
time seems endless to one, though
precedes rapid fall

[symphony]

at the height of love,
arms twined and minds full, do not
think about its weight...


edit:
precedes rapid fall
to a cerulean abyss--
dreams and dreaminess...

[kiz_paws]

Dreams and dreaminess
only a heartbeat away
keep your eyes open

[crazefest456]

keep your eyes open
to the hum of the gale;
awaits behind fate

[mazHur]

awaits behind fate
like a sword hanging over
the uneasy head

[kiz_paws]

The uneasy head
should go and rest for awhile
and let their cares go

[mazHur]

and let their cares go
and rest in some other head
this head is too tired

[white camellia]

This head is too tired
His will to conceive nothing
But one subject: I

[mazHur]

But one subject: I
in reality means YOU,
that is two in one!

[kiz_paws]

That is two in one
lovers sail through life so sweet
changing perspectives

[mazHur]

changing perspectives
remind me of how you changed
in the spring of love

[kiz_paws]

In the spring of love
two hearts ready to blossom
birds played the music

[crazefest456]

in the spring of love
bluebird flies over to twig
where's perched: a sparrow!

[mazHur]

birds played the music
bluebird flies over to twig
in the spring of love!

[symphony]

where's perched: a sparrow,
there go my thoughts-- sunny days
and sun-seeking clouds...

[kiz_paws]

And sun-seeking clouds
play celestial hide-and-seek
we could watch for hours

[mazHur]

this is not fair ,,,,you ought to start with the previous one !!

and sun-seeking clouds
will hardly bring forth the rain
for the thirsty earth

[symphony]

we could watch for hours
and still wonder what we saw
when eyes failed to see...

edit:
for the thirsty earth
i have held genial drops, but
they soon crystallized...

to mazhur: but crazefest already wrote one with "in the spring of love" so i thought....

[mazHur]

we could watch for hours
our faces in front of
the mirror and smile

[mazHur]

when eyes failed to see
when ears refused to listen
you are in trouble

[kiz_paws]

The mirror and smile
practice carefully the pose
that hides the sad heart

[mazHur]

that hides the sad heart
is none other than this wretch
please come and catch me!

[crazefest456]

please come and catch me
before I fall on my own
o'er the jagged cliff

[mazHur]

o'er the jagged cliff
you went looking for trouble
wait, I am coming!

[crazefest456]

wait, I am coming!"
the distraught mother exclaims
though finds out, too late

[mazHur]

though finds out, too late
that's good for her, good for you
and I get the cake!

[kiz_paws]

And I get the cake
because I am spoiled rotten
or thats what they say...

[jon1jt]

or that's what they say.
Call me spoiled one more time...
receive cake-in-face!

:)

[motherhubbard]

receive cake-in-face,
Retaliate with seltzer
Don’t you love clown school

[ShoutGrace]

Don't you love clown school?
A pleasant diversion from
Cold real life concerns.

[mazHur]

Cold real life concerns
are too much for this teenage
let her toy her time

[kiz_paws]

Let her toy her time
because time is all she has
such a shame, really.

[mazHur]

such a shame, really
teenage are not supposed to
behave like women

[kiz_paws]

is a statement I question
as I am not sure

[jon1jt]

as I am not sure
Listen in the alder bushes,
a bird crying out?

[kiz_paws]

A bird crying out
the joy of the egg cracking
see the miracle

[jon1jt]

Red curtain lifts, it's Santa,
yells, "Still yourself, love!"

[kiz_paws]

Yells, "Still yourself, love!"
and we laugh through our teacups
or was it stronger... ;)

[jon1jt]

:lol: now that's cool, yes!

or was it stronger
than that old tune, 'More than words?'
I'll have the red wine

[kiz_paws]

Stronger than that
foundation we call a home
careful of the cracks

[mazHur]

careful of the cracks
he tried to be but at last
a crevice got him

[kiz_paws]

A crevice got him
he plays sad songs in prison
about innocence...
