At night

A firefly with its light..

My thoughts

Very often get the address

To send a letter to my inertia.

staring at the moon

trying to find

your reflection

Mike Fainzilber



love thy enemy

the one

I married

Mike Fainzilber



after the parting

sunrise and sunset

in grayscale

Mike Fainzilber



cloth on cloth

so near

too far…

Mike Fainzilber



what a view, you say

I see

only you

Mike Fainzilber



a haiku dream

when the soul

meets itself

sudden truce —

hanging wash

over the rubble

lonely conch the exile's blues

Mariangela Canzi



words float

in my mind...

new Beatles song

a scream

the dim moon bringing life

to darkness


Mike Gallagher



that day

when the world changed forever

what I was doing


Mike Gallagher



drunken melee

several cases of assault

brewing

snowy March

the creaking sound of little boots…

egg hunt begins


Maya Daneva



smooth talk…

I rinse off the wild clams

for third time

in the clear still pool

of your haiku I have seen

my own reflection

rent overdue

locked out with nothing

but a comb-over

thick family Bible

she only keeps up

with births

warming up

the farmhouse kitchen

banana bread

not toy guns

not real guns

she wants nothing to do

with guns in her house

ever. again.

in an old book

after all these years

her letter

still winter

and they are sticking out of the ground

buds
