4th is Gold enough

come sit on my knee
"... 22 years since my last confession"
who's the bad boy now?
working the angle
it's all recreational
her heart out of sight

Spot Haiku 4

I see rains have come
teasing us with a shawl fringe
grey earth compacted

Cathy Dineen

The email unread
like the tree in the forest
jumps no lazy dog

Chris Gill

Late October in Bremen

Winter's icy tongue
Chilled lust and tardy thoughts now
Cold face heading south

Post-Mortein Moth

post-Mortein moth
flailing, refusing to die
refusing me peace

A Pocock Twinset

Dot, dash, I sense your pain
flashing in morse code
Searching for ships at sea

Squint, stare, seeking a buoy
Unable to swim towards it
How do you do CPR again?

Shell Pocock
ring, ring, ring, connect
your mind is a matrix
you feel so much, you make me feel.

Shell Pocock
a paper lantern
a moth, teased by filament
slow circular death

all the better to distract him
from what she's saying

can't kill 'em
can't eat 'em

Ian Row
Sydney Road traffic
Stuck and anxious on the white line
Feel like "Frogger"

Tramlife 3

sniff, yawn, snuffle, stare.

suit but no manners.

Tram halitosis
Get on the armpit express
Don't stand too close

Watershed Moments 1

i.
tonight i engaged
in the polemic of keeping you
for the last time

ii.
you spray subtext
marking your territory
who's afraid of who?

iii.
every reference
signposts to their egos
soooo bad for my chi

iv.
and then there was you
all sun, sand, the grey ocean
if only we knew

four haiku about three indian boys in an elevator

say what you will
it's the same in any language
loud and clear

should have hauled you up
taken you out, there and then
mind's in repeat mode

maybe it's OK
where you come from
- can i say that?
oh, i just did

let's see you do
a white guy and get bashed up
not funny now?
