It doesn’t wait

Time beats on
Without a thought for me. My
Day ends quickly.

Gathering Clouds in Moonlight (haiku)

Grey mountain of sky
Eating valiant silver ships
Wild drunk on moon blood

Mountain (haiku)

Like a fish bone knife
Patiently gutting stray clouds
For silver lining.

my life's essentials
I breathe, eat, drink and I poop
how miraculous!

Senryu

swing under a tree
the river flows on downstream
here lies good balance


A morning with birds
harvesting the light of day
life above the ground

Sweet Release

Cadenced footsteps quicken
A jangle of keys
Now freedom and release.

Senryu x 3

flames for Africa
a hot girl in my chimney
move over Santa

send me an angel
send me an angel, right now,
right now, burns me up ... Real Life, remember that one?

Our love is custard
You're so white and I'm an egg
beat it, beat it, Uh! ... one for Michael.

About this poem:
It seems senryu is taking over here temporarily. I thought I'd add a lighthearted attempt.
