I am bad at this,
how syllables slide toward
your cloudless skies now.
I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

And the suns shines bright,
raining liquid summer warmth.
Forty degree days.

High temps fluctuate,
cover the green blades with gold:
a dream in winter.
I am a forest fire and an ocean, and I will burn you just as much
as I will drown everything you have inside.

Writing a Haiku
Forgetting syllable count
What was I doing?
Save time... see it my way.

I can't remember
the innocence of flowers.

And her grace, so light,
sidled by the manly lot,
holding sword and shield

Gum boughs slink lower
as skies raise red and ash hot
our breath will refresh.
I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

The birds observe us,
two machines lying in tar.
Can they see our eyes?
I am a forest fire and an ocean, and I will burn you just as much
as I will drown everything you have inside.

There are no eyes here,
here in Death's Other Kingdom;
Mistah Kurtz - he dead.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Live, never can we,
for wind will stop and earth...shake!
Pawns are we to death

The mouth of the earth;
forever speaking to me
in so many tongues.
I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

Grassy tentacles
wrapped 'round my shriveling heart
and returned greenness.

Taste the drying ash
settled on your tongue, again
reincarnation.
I like you as an enemy, but I love you as a friend.

smooth skin and perfect features,
wrought anew this day.

Count the syllables,
found anything wrong with them?
Maybe you would.

Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.
