Tuesday poems: seven dwarfs
May 21, 2012
1.
Aladdin’s café
health foods, humous, saffron
Open Sesame
2.
haiku yakuza
execute punctuation!
killer formalists
3.
If poetry
is the mouth
critics pulling
are needle-mad dentists
4.
Grey ghosts of planes
winding down to Gitmo
cigar smoke blows
5.
Bonsai triffids
cut down to flowerpots
balcony stings
6.
Sun fishing
gravity snags planets
hook bites deep
7.
Manga and cartoon
smooth cheese and wasabi
spreading mayhem
P.S. Cottier
Now, that’s value for you!
Why not click this feather and see if any other Tuesday poet has been playing Snow White?

Warning: this post contains improper haiku.
mangoes and vodka
occasional longish walks
haiku in no time
This rare excursion into the dubious realm of ‘lifestyle’ is presented with apologies to all haijin (which is not a cocktail). I do know that counting syllables is the devil’s pastime, but sometimes it’s so much fun. Also with apologies to Japan, mangoes and vodka.
