cigarette butt
well squeezed, carmine lipsticked
enjoyed but oh so briefly

discarded in the gutter
smoking

mother earth

dark alley attack
or touching tenderly
two lovers

perhaps matter
simply wants to be

closer

= brandoed =

from darkest hearts

a sombre river
flows

the modern slaver
their self obsessing photos
capturing your soul

whatever dubious honour
bought and sold

but oh, the horror



mirror

pretty plastic fish
escape from clutching primark soup
learn to strut the land

in exploitation heels
with no receipts

who was it said
that all our youngsters should be
generation Z

as if they
would surely be the end, like

of history

The difference between "need not rhyme" and "should not rhyme" seems to escape some people.
Sometimes I wonder if even asking a question about the rights and wrongs of haiku is like turning your glass over in a Glasgow pub.

i don't have time

public as a school
of sharks on small fish feeding
thick as thieves

can you feel your future
tanking

what a wheeze
