Screeching in darkness

A limpkin flying too far
From river's safe shore

The crescent moon wanes

Mocks the sun through darkest skies
With whip-o-will songs

Raindrop on tin roof lulled 
Divot carved dream

Floor rushing up to greet me

Pieces of me fall into 

The freedom of you

Informal affair.
A collar of hemp he wore, 
Feet swinging in air.

For one brief moment
the full moon changes
bat to butterfly.

To hell with the prudes and jerks

Everything the same,
Is it all just a pattern?
Maybe, It will collapse.

I love haikus so much, I wrote a ton in sixth grade...

My heart is racing.

You are the cause, my sickness.

My love is in vain.

I was born in hell

A place where life means nothing

But I'm still happy.

In twilight's realm,

4 AM paints surreal dreams,

Whispers of wonder.
