Still playing with haiku, still the 5-7-5 ones...thanks for reading them...ed


Poem Artwork

#1: Communication…

 

Or the lack thereof

Yes miscommunication

No more conversing

 

#2: Another…

 

Promiscuity

The art of being sexy

Without being so

 

#3: And yet still another…

 

Proletariat

Working class people they are

Proliferating

ooooo... numbers 2 and 3 are borderline DIVINE! (smile) It's a great wit, not to mention a cool mind that can use up all 5 syllables in one word! You did it twice... true ku, you! (May I gently point out, for the sake of ART, LOL.. that number 1 has 5 7 7?) I shall chalk it up to your ever-expanding, creative mind. (grin) Carry on... you are so good at these. katy xox.

A new Haiku devotee! These are quite interesting, Ed. And the Britiku Champ, Andy, likes them, too. Maybe we should call yours Edikus, or Jerseykus! I think I like the last one the best.

These Black and Blue Red Zone Days by Aberjhani

Just as life during the pandemic was color-coded with different hues representing different levels of danger, life in its aftermath has become shaded in similar ways. As a self-styled “Seeker of Beauty with Beauty,” (borrowing from a quote by W.E.B.
