    Clangorous racket

    Clangerous racket
    wails from beneath my car's hood
    signalling expense.

    Signalling expense,
    Hastily my billfold wraps
    My remaining cash.

    My remaining cash
    Is spent to purchase for me
    A Firefly-class.
    Por una cabeza
    Si ella me olvida
    Qué importa perderme
    Mil veces la vida
    Para qué vivir

    It's what I unteach myself;
    and teach, tenderness.

    And teach tenderness
    lest aesthetics escape us
    in the quest for Self
    Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty

    In the quest for Self,
    Ego plays the primary;
    It's down to business.

    and the Rainbow weeps

    And the Rainbow weeps;
    Generations in pure drops
    Reflecting brilliance.

    Jane Jane, the way you play this game is, you take the last line of the person's Haiku above you, and then create the rest of your Haiku; sorry to have to be the one to tell you this...your haiku is quite lovely though...

    Reflecting brilliance
    Crescendoing water gusts
    Ripple like harp strings.

    Ripple like harp strings
    Becoming strong like thunder
    A deep moaning growl

    and (***) hit the fan!
