Donuts For Five: A Haiku
We say we trust us
So bring donuts tomorrow
Sprinkles and creme-filled
Kitchen Floor Blues
If
Songstress
Eyes
Ignore
Illusion
Then
Hoping
Heartstrings
Feel
Confusion
This
Artist
Formerly
Into
You
Comes
Harder
Renamed
Singing
Anew
So Solo
Laboring
Carrying
Their nonsensical shit you allowed on your shoulders
No amount of shouting wills it to flee
There is snow now falling atop it, too
Think
What to do
Do this, Lisa, and do not delay
Kiss him goodbye in silence
Without remorse
For he won’t know you’ve slipped away, anyway
Go on girl, in gratitude
To solitude again
Aura Again
Swim away back
Into the deep, deep color of you
Wear your aura again
Be breathing
Envisioning
Let loose the back muscles that constrain you
Go deeper to come higher
Think cinematographically all along
Your spirit animal and apex instinct
Cameras rolling, claim it
Reunited
An eagerness
For isn’t life grand!
An inward look
That we’d understand
A nourishing act
For to fuel the soul
A balance within
That softly we’d roll
At War: A Haiku
All such beautiful
Such swirling and billowing
Energy in you
Higher Self
Ask about my windows, World!
Inquire of my peace
Be vulnerable and take my hand
Let “what if” worries cease
If this seems manic to your mind
Then see me with your soul
I’ll take you to dimension five
Your ego slave to Whole
Neverworld
Amidst painted on smiles, I see
The practiced resolve to accept
What could’ve been
Repetition, day-in….
I pretend each has it in them
To convert all the pretty words
To tell the virtual, goodbye
And meet me at midnight
Vibing
I commit to no shadows
Self-imposing today’s low light
The only contrast I’ll allow, the soft snow falling’s concession to percolating coffee
This quieted timbre carries me
And I, it
Throughout these next daylight hours, should I spend them inclined to chase light and false-bravado song
I am grey-orchid today and candles tonight
Silent, but vibing
The moment before
