across blackened skies
lightning stretches its fingers
like a palsied man.

last night, we had severe storms in the area, and the above haiku came to mind. this type of lightning is called "anvil crawler" or "spider" lightning. it spreads across the skies in pulse beats...really something to behold.
A homonymless man writes shows what it's like to look up the laid he skirts when you’re lying prone(d) to the sidewalk, beer / joint / needle dangling from your hand /lips / arm.
BAM!! This is one extraordinary haiku my friend!!
