Here's a thought for now
In the future we should have
Other poem threads
And the first of which
If 'tis not too complicate
Fourteen-lined sonnets
So Spenserian
Or perhaps Shakespearean
Any takers? Yes?

Say it is not so!
Haiku is back here again.
Oh, much woe to me!
"We do not need any other Tutankhamun's tomb with all its treasures. We need context. We need understanding. We need knowledge of historical events to tie them together. We don't know much. Of course we know a lot, but it is context that's missing, not treasures." - Werner Herzog, in Archaeology, March/April 2011
People will miss that it once meant something to be Southern or Midwestern. It doesn't mean much now, except for the climate. The question, “Where are you from?” doesn't lead to anything odd or interesting. They live somewhere near a Gap store, and what else do you need to know? - Garrison Keillor

providing more lines
allows language precision,
more complexity,
and greater satisfaction
communicating one's thoughts.

hope to be a summer morn
blown by hypocrisy scorn
ajourned in bed
rock on
Looking for Sanity
In this Crazy Land Of Ours
Typhoid elephant,
jenny neediness assault,
natatorial.
Soapless bazooka,
dedans ideograph quotation,
sortition auger.
Ptyalin scrotum,
wildfire victual footlocker,
cockfight myosin.
Emergency endways,
antiphon bowel flutter,
trademark pareve.

A nuisance may be merely a right thing in the wrong place — like a pig in the parlor instead of the barnyard.
Haiku leftovers:
who needs all those syllables?
Shooby dooby doo

Nothing cures the gloom
Like a day spent in sand and sun
Soak it up, lavish.
Occupy Your Brain!
Rain again today.
The weather has been quite odd.
I miss the sunshine.
Il pleut sur mon coeur
le jugement a été fait
mon âme est mouillée

shame, rush, depression
then a quake of loneliness
expectations high
