Non sequitur haikus

[electrycmonk]

Seems to me that pain
unceremoniously;
cut to the chase, quick…

4/23

Diffuse depression
the weak boy in me braces;
Tide rises again
1/5

Chickens don’t get mange
But, viscous foul-pox looks worse;
Weakness in balance
2/5

Invisible strength
Chemistry’s steel recipe,
Tungsten will melt you
3/5

From the dark on stage
Tungsten lights will burn your flesh
use asbestos gloves!
4/5

Regret shows it’s cards
Cupcakes aren’t fun anymore
Brace for rejection
5/5

A lot still to learn
We as a species are young;
Authenticity

Only do your best,
Honesty & memories,
Love will fill in gaps!

Obituaries,

Divisive? Maybe
#Breakfast can be one-sided;
Scones, toast or muffins?
#TalkinHaiku #foodies #HaikuThursday #HaikuChallenge #haiku #patience #AllOfTheAbove

Standard breakfast is
overrated. The best one?
Last night's cold pizza!

Cantaloupe thawing
Salt increases the flavors
When did we add it?

Crunchy to the taste
Can you smell the melting frost
or salty texture

That stuff's amazing!
Still frozen, in a blender,
Summer in a glass!

That tug on her ear,
that pure #honesty she gave
Freely, beautiful

and that pure #humour
with her wonderful teammates
great #intelligence

Reminder is set,
All cylinders firing?
I hope they will be…

Evolving mongrel
My imagination’s been
through a lot of late…

Lighting that candle!
Kick the tires & light the fires.
Burning’ midnight oil-
