a crushed haiku

memories sniffed back

heart slows,punctured lungs collapse

tears burn flesh away

an addicts haiku

we blindly seek out
our cursed self destruct button
as a release valve

a liberty haiku

false idol stands tall
torching dreams of moths flocking
to her false porch light

an ashamed haiku

burning rage released
mirrors punched spider web cracks
catch my reflection

a fighting haiku

i’ll clean off my flesh
use my bones to hone my blade
‘fore i’ll call death friend

this haiku was inspired by  Elane Corby’s
plea  to remove her tumored right leg.

a barren haiku

man scratched earths surface
learning off her fruits pleasures 
man pillaged  her womb

a pining haiku

 

sleeping on the streets
the moon looks half full tonight
soon i’ll spoon the cow

an anti colonialists haiku

 

NO! for Israel’s sins
Palestinians should not starve
entombed in barb wire

a never ever was I land haiku

 

my shadow fell down
a dried leaf crackling to dust
on the fallen bones

an unbalanced haiku

the poor dream for more
the middle class work for more
the rich hoard and hoard
