Haiku Chain

Recommended Posts

candy from babies

easy as pie, to steal love

stony lonesome time

 

stony lonesome time

future gone, past still to come,

now, there is no now.

stony lonesome time

future gone, past still to come,

now, there is no now.

 

Now, there is no now,

there's only meow, meow, meow, meow --

hungry cats' real time

sneaking peeks betwixt shut-eyes

My reply to this haiku,

seventeen word waste.

 

seventeen word waste,

excrement carefully placed,

is feng shui pooey.
