Karma bit their ass,

dogma still eats the people’s

souls. When does it end?

 

Souls. When does it end?

What?  Does infinity have

a limitation?

A limitation?

A bird in a cage still chirps.

Music to deaf ears.

Music to deaf ears

A sight for blind eyes--walking

hand in hand, alone

Hand in hand, alone,

“your hand in mine”: Explosions

in the Sky: great band!

(Sorry, couldn't figure out how to delete this insert).  I wrote before seeing Mr. Gray's ditty.

Manitou's response to my previous haiku, which I liked (and she deleted):

hand in hand, alone

they feel the current of love

under fuschia skies

 

Earl Grey's response to my haiku:

 

Hand in hand, alone,

“your hand in mine”: Explosions

in the Sky: great band!

My haiku, to follow Earl Gray's:

in the sky:  great band

ears to hear the sky's wavelength

few and far between

few and far between

wind-blown early autumn leaves 

mild winter beckons....

Thom cats  wailing in tandem,

glistening sky song 


glistening sky song

blue and orange on the water
no other, resting

No other resting

place as welcoming as death

that brings you back home.

no trace at all in the sky
