how to write a haiku

first and last line of
haikus have five syllables
middle has seven

nonsense

audible nonsense
leaves more questions than answers
better left ignored

Kaiyo

wandering alone
successful business woman
wants someone to kiss

code

the moon glows brightly
amidst the dark starless sky
bleakest hopeless night

waka (poem)

shrines along the road
worship what has come and gone
a moment in time
frozen for eternity
holding onto what was best

IKEA

Who was Ikea?
Someone I never did meet.
Thought it was a shop!

blank

these haikus are great
how can I compete with this?
here, an empty page

little bumpy ant

something small moving
quickly along the bathtub
little bumpy ant

missed a day

two days one haiku
forgot to write yesterday
should I do two now?

online

i write something, post
it and wait for a reply
to keep ball rolling

passport office

stand in line, phone off
show documents, take number
move on, keep waiting

eyebrows

Hot wax poured, sculpted,
pulled off, stinging, again and
again. Nice smooth arch.

Banff

cold hike up mountain
tattoo filled hot springs outside
browsing shops on main

airport

pick up from airport
not exiting as flying
away somewhere warm

ten days

ten days without work

some call it a holiday

i call it boredom
