We humans can't win
Apollo is the hot god
Of random haikus
I bought a cactus. A week later it died. I got depressed because I thought Damn, I am less nurturing than a desert.

When Apollo dies
there will still be heat and song:
humans made the gods.

Apollo fell from
the skies to Earth, a fire
stone, not made by us.

Who made the quarries
that we mine for strength, which we
deplete like forests?
Instead, he said, Brother! I know your hunger.
To this, the Wolf answered, Lo!

Wibbly wobbly stuff
Falls on the land where we live
Timey wimey stuff

Through madness I bloom -5
Through sanity I stagnate -7
I am not quite real -5

Flies in majesty.
Crashes into the blueness.
And leaves with a catch.

My attempt at a Haiku about an Osprey!

Unavoidable
Swift retribution takes you
Nature will fight back

You stain like smoke on

you out of my mind.

Her brain was hungry
She ate too many large words
They slowly choked her.

It is yellow, right? :)
Smiling on some sentences :) :) :)
It also cry, right?
I love Koku.
He is damn cute and should be the main character
and not some lazy old man that supposedly genius but a sucker in his own life.
Koku is Koku.
Koku is CUTE.

mustard fields

Sheets of yellow blend
into the fog, over my
winter morning tea

regularly went cuckoo."
