unworthy
melting like tallow
your rigid countenance falls
you can't take the heat

Haiku Horror Writing Prompt no. 1662: sinew
#haikuhorrorprompt #nothaiku
inebriety
once the feast is through,
skin and bone, fascia, sinew--
these we leave behind

Haiku Horror Writing Prompt no. 1610: blizzard
#haikuhorrorprompt #nothaiku #APoemADay
upon the edge of sorrow
when the blizzard blinds you
and the icy bleakness binds you
you reach out for more
then knock upon death's door

styx and stones
the brackish water
rises from stygian depths.
we drown within our graves.

glimmers
when you close your eyes,
do the colors blind you?
will the light still bind you?

A maze of scars
These hearts of ours
Each reaching for a dream that keeps receding
We keep planting seeds
Writing books no one reads
If only to show we know how to take a beating

Photo of water and rocks
I closed my petals,
sank back into
the muddy water.
Bloom weighed by
rocks, trying to emerge
with the dawn,
I fail.
Watery hell,
why do some people
believe in all or nothing?
I dream of our ghosts.

What of our #glimmers?
We speak of our triggers -
a sound, a shape, an anniversary -
those things that
take us back to pain.
What of the things
that bring us joy?
Flowers, poetry,
a song -
a sound, a shape, an
anniversary.

Silence the Vylans.
Don’t incite violence
Don’t slap the hand that claps
Send aid to Gaza stat!!
Open the gates! Open the gates!
Let the food flow in.

#LongDays make for
more time to worry--
more time to doomscroll,
more time for denial.
Today I opened my eyes
and I thought,
"This Solstice Eve, go
slowly. Listen to the rain, there, outside your window--
turn off the news, unpack
the kitchen."

I was going to save this for the #solstice, but today's #DailyHaikuPrompt is #TallGrass. One thing I miss from working on campus instead of remotely is hearing #crickets in and seeing #dragonflies over the tall grass by the sidewalk in #summer.

My daughter and I
put down #roots
on the bookstore floor;
Her first open mic,
poets reading their
words of Pride--
the first honoring
Jonathan Joss.

A close up of a purplish pink aster flower during the day
The Winter #Sparrows
have gone quiet;
The Holly Trees
with #berries green--
It is the Aster's season
now; their blooms open
in day and pulled shut
in the warm, late-spring nights.

Nature #endures the
seemingly incessant spring
rains before the droughts
of summer arrive again.

Try to #sketch nature's beauty in my mind's eye, but photographs are
more vivid, capturing
droplets left from #rivers
of rain and one last dahlia,
the others #withered but
a new bud unfurling.

Sunset through the trees over a small field in the city
recurring dreams
walking rooms
in old spaces
long gone
a #breath away
from all
that never was

Walking this #road just before the violet hour,
the #wind is soft and the shadows grow long.
Turning #north, I head
back home.

The garden surrounds her with vibrance and life
Grass grows underfoot,
interruptions of dandelions and violets
Blossom falls in plagues at each strong breeze
Flowers bloom bright and decay;
each marks another day passed
A most pleasant prison, but a prison nonetheless

Senryu is structured exactly like a haiku, but is about human nature rather than outdoor nature. I really like them. Try one!
"Prettier when you smile,"
Says the passing man...
Who asked you, dickface?

No, this isn't haiku but the word hare always jumps me to Withnail and I. Can't be helped :) #DailyHaikuPrompt (hare) #NotHaiku I'll try for something better later. Cheers.

HOW NOT TO HAIKU
Do five syllables
Then do seven syllables
Then do five again
