OXYMORON

the oxymoron
of being, yet non-existent
-the voiceless many

A Call

A soothing call
echoing in the atmosphere
time for reflection

How to write a Haiku

I wanted to write a Haiku
So I was told I had to
Use a three line structure
With 17 moras for spectre
So I began mora mora moru...

This how we write a haiku
With elegant moras in situ
But when I looked back
I realised I'd been slack
and way below par

So it was back to the drawing
board
I took a deep breath,
ventured out to nature
Then I began to Haiku

"trees in the distance
the acacia tortilis
dancing in the wind"

Delightfully dark is my day
Filled with a sinister sound
At night conveys my dismay
Something exquisite and profound

Taste of eeriness and despair
Somehow stimulates my mind
Absence of these in the air
Renders me mute somewhat blind

Letting the sunflower bloom
Hope keeps me really close
Fragrance exists in gloom
Like an evening primrose

Sunshine while guiding my way
Nurtures the chaos around
At night conveys my dismay
Something exquisite and profound
