A haiku written on a warm December day in Chicago

bouncing up and down
cheerfully, Canada geese
blue waves of the lake

Carol Ruth Kimmel

Hobart 09: Suite

i.
cirrus clouds for two
blue sky whispers a welcome
open road ahead

ii.
landmarks evoke
points in personal history
some things still hurt

iii.
drought tolerant plants
gifts for an estranged mother
zero maintenance

iv.
a mainland gourmand
samples the offshore flavours
deep fried 'miss the mark'

v.
missing the moment
i forget about the future
have i learned nothing?

A haiku about The Watchmen

The Watchmen
Best supporting performance...
Billy's blue penis

Ian Row

my baby bleeds blue
the astrologer says 'laugh'
deeper and deeper
