Chain, chain, chain, chain of haiku fools

CDSinex · Nov 8, 2018

Beware, blades are sharp—
The shortcut through an unmown field
leaves blood on my arm

kkbe · Nov 13, 2018

Leaves. Blood on my arm.
Gifties sent from me to you.
So, too, this haiku.

zanzjan · Nov 13, 2018

So, too, this haiku
follows the ancient pattern,
winds up at your door.

B.D. Eyeslie · Nov 16, 2018

Winds up at your door,
a squall you never answer.
Damn the collectors.

-Riv- · Nov 16, 2018

Damn the collector.
No one can take my soul! But . . .
Here I am in hell.

B.D. Eyeslie · Nov 18, 2018

Here I am in hell,
its bulkheads, jaws of ruin.
Finale to life.

kkbe · Nov 27, 2018

Finale to life:
plastic skin, rictus grin. You
look the same to me.

kdnxdr · Dec 10, 2018

look the same to me
endless mirrored eyes, perceive
my self come undone

zanzjan · Dec 11, 2018

My self, come undone,
sheds buttons and springs, loose cogs,
bad dreams, the old fears.

CDSinex · Dec 11, 2018

(I know it's not quite winter: I see the future.

)

Bad dreams, the old fears—
The first day of winter is
covered with fresh snow

zanzjan · Dec 12, 2018

Covered with fresh snow
your body cools, nine arrows
to guide you back home.

Michael Myers · Dec 12, 2018

to guide you back home
breath hovers over stream ice
stream flows to river

B.D. Eyeslie · Dec 16, 2018

Stream flows to river,
but the river card is death,
and with that, I fold.

Michael Myers · Dec 16, 2018

and with that, I fold
laundry pinned to line sun drenched
willow basket old

ChloeRose · Dec 16, 2018

willow basket old
women cradle in their arms
emptied of their use

Michael Myers · Dec 17, 2018

emptied of their use
substance used for its absence
waits for any needs

ChloeRose · Dec 17, 2018

Waits for any needs
Known to the crimson cardinal
Bare branches promise

B.D. Eyeslie · Dec 18, 2018

Bare branches promise
empty fists of mother's night--
no milk in the fridge.

CDSinex · Dec 18, 2018

No milk in the fridge—
The fresh snow in the driveway
tells me I can wait

ChloeRose · Dec 20, 2018

Tells me I can wait
While kayaks are racked and strapped
Amber ducks waft by

B.D. Eyeslie · Dec 29, 2018

Amber ducks waft by.
Woodland wallpaper backdrop
ends my drive in fits.

I love you baby, but I can't ball when I see those ducks on the wall.~ The Kinks

Michael Myers · Dec 29, 2018

Ends my drive in fits
Hubris overwhelms the shame
Valiantly, I rise

ReadWriteRachel · Dec 29, 2018

Valiantly, I rise
away from troubles, doubts, fears,
to keep on going.

ChloeRose · Dec 30, 2018

To keep going
Ladies lunch on quiche and wine
Chatting of divorce

Michael Myers · Dec 30, 2018

Chatting of divorce
Like black crows on a tight rope
Saying nothing wise
