in winter

Ghostly voices
cold wind gusts
eerie sound


self criticism
way not anything like a haiku
except for the coincidence of being three lines
I should have called it February Ku
chilled to the bone

The winter of discontent
distracted by abstractions

Strange Green February
warm and rain
grass is knee high

thanks for taking the time to comment

something wireman wrote been going round in my thoughts for a couple of days I keep hearing it
wanna be seamless
forever dreamless
something so
centering for me
sounds like a ku maybe

a glimpse of clarity

Everything is going to
eat me up... better
cover February tracks.
`Do you know, I was so angry, Kitty,' Alice went on...`when I saw all the mischief you had been doing, I was very nearly opening the window, and putting you out into the snow! And you'd have deserved it, you
little mischievous darling!

woke up from a highly entertaining nightmare this morning and i thought about your ku.

lions and tigers and bears oh my
i have read that children have dreams about being eaten alive, that it is the most frequeunt type of childhood nightmare.
earliest childhood night mare i can remember is one about flying dinosaurs swooping down on me with their big teeth.

a common terror
tip a rari
haiku
