Haiku Sunday – Final Days in Denver are words and images from our life in the Rocky Mountain State during our final two weeks. Enjoy!
shining app sized bites
loving the views hating douche
morgue before-after
she tore at the pack
then grabbed scissors to shred the
seams of the cement bag
decisions shaped and
adventures planned taking sip
after sip dreaming
playful turns seem so
innocent till the searing
begins and skin burns
the robiola
melting on the hand while the
kir made her more open
always raw the chef knows
there can be no other way
to build Frankenstein
stirring stirring rice
time stands at bold attention
waiting the flatware
another damn dram
pulled to the lips with a burn
sprayed later from urn
last he had less now
more than before into the jar
not in the glass whore
crying alone is
always better than tears of joy
shed towards losers
wrapped up like a pro
the victim’s body smelled fresh
when it hit the steam
a final heaven meal
among angels of the sea
how can we replace?
mister limpet smiled
as he prepared to sound
his horn of demise
the ends of the earth
to find the great fish that are
the end of the earth
rocking rolls of rib
meat in spotlight setting the
mood to imbibe now
days after blue moons
the light now ordinary
but still lights our way
always love your words and your photos.

Great post! Love the pictures and the Haiku. I’m still working on the one you assigned me last week in our little comment exchange. I’m so lame. Your piece puts me to shame.
I just don’t think you can ever look at it that way Guat. It is always about the joy in doing and sharing so if writing any kind of thing gives you a positive emotion or sense of self satisfaction then keep at it. My Haiku style makes me happy to write although most are very technically rogue verse. I have allowed negative comments and self-doubt to freeze my work for long periods of time on several occasions in life. I find that simply getting the work our fuels the habit and improves the results. I look forward to your work
Each one is wonderful…all the best!
Thank you Boomie!
Beautiful! Don’t forget to write.
that would be a tough thing to forget! thanks for all the enormous support here Susie
Thank you Michael!
