HAIKUS
P.M.
i think i met thor
the depths of your emotions
i watched the sky shake
M.S.*
change my words to wine
something sweet to drink in spring
some way to know me
E.V.*
can't i caress you
with inquest and inquiry
who are you, really?
G.H.*
my heart stays open
like the flowers in heaven
love is eternal
S.C.G.//
how wonderful to
allow a meeting of souls
on a Tuesday night
R.S.
if Zeus is jealous
it's of the lightning in you
his cannot compete
G.S.
there's a comfort in
looking into someone's eyes
and seeing yourself
A.O.*
what of obsession?
to understand another,
to be understood
J.P.
i want the ocean
to grab me and drag me out
to its deep abyss
E.V.*
love doesn't scare me
it revitalizes me
it's what's possible
A.T.
the curls in your hair
they remind me of something--
a painting i love
M.S.*
i live in the past
i live inside memories
i live in myself
C.V.
all those small moments
and sometimes we get lucky
and we know each other
M.S.*
i have this feeling
endless possibility
how nice that it's there
D.F.
to live in conflict
and to live through all the pain
still tethered to hope
M.B.
tricky beginnings
superseded by middles
that make me happy
G.H.*
to err is to be
as human as possible
or so they have said
M.S.*
i want what i want
i do not house patience here
nor does she visit
D.F.
the supreme joy in
getting to revise a poem
when you fall in love
R.P.//
i love knowing you
and i love hearing your poems
and about your days
R/D*
and the displeasure
of then revising a poem
when things change too much
J.B.
wrap me in your flames--
when you look at me like that,
when i am undone
M.S.*
to be me is to
swim endlessly in feelings
and to be happy
J.B.
i get the sense that
MGMT wrote for us
either them or God
