Shrill Limerick

Paul Stanley of Kiss

a rock band was terribly shrill
providing their fans a big thrill
the lead guitarist was drowned
by a strange distorted sound
they were using a stanley hand drill

Three Covert Senryu

Three Covert Senryu

enfettered to state
introduced by baleful chuch
covert partnership

governing systems
shadowed before the spotlight
opaque and covert

strangest covert cloud
meandering in dark sky
supernatural

Sofa

against a brick wall
no value without cushions

Six Light Love-Making Senryu

Supermoon 2012 over Athens

climbing high mountains
living for amazing views
breathing in light air

kiss me all night long
in the light of supermoon
it shall never fade

mercurial hearts
a three way love affair
at the speed of light

together we flee
to a private bed chamber
intimate contact

candlelight echoes
neighbors listen thorough the wall
adjacent bedrooms

angel in bright light
descending in blinding rays
delivered climax

Three Flaring Haiku

F-22 Testing "Flares"

a flare
a perfect kiss
simple truth

harmony flares
dazzeling melody
flashy music

lights flaring
pots and pans tossed in air
poltergeist

********************

Posted for on Sensational Haiku Wednesday part of You Know That Blog.

I usually don’t post a picture after the fact, but I found this one and just had to. A totally cool USAF picture after the flare test was executed. What remains seems to be an angel.

The Kiss

Der Kuss By Gustav Klimt

The Kiss

there is someone who
at initial sighting

immediate knowledge
manifests: lifetimes

have been shared
between the two.

an urge drives
to pounce upon

this darling,
this warrior

who has reappeared
in this passing life.

strangers hesitate.
a moment, another

moment, then,
with telesthesia,

you take each other
as if you are owned.

the brain violently churns
a torrent of serotonin.

that kiss has been since
you two were torn asunder.

then all that can exist
is primordial flash.

More Than

Greater Than Sign

More than a fork makes a pie crust flake.
More than sugar in chocolate.
More than goats eat anything.
More than bears eat honey.
More than your soft lips.
More than riches.
More than health.
More than.
More.

The form goes like this:  ABCDEFGHI or alpha numerical form, so each line is a different ending word. The corresponding syllables are 9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.  If this doesn’t make sense, go to the link above, and they will explain it in other ways.

As for the amazing artwork above, I did it. It’s too inventive, I know. If there were something better, something else, I would have chosen that.
