Haiku for fun

Smog sirens and city streets
Malicious bickering sounds
Blue glass sky above


Bright blinking neon
screaming green and pink and blue
while grass grows unseen


Unattended weeds
attempt conformity but
fail miserably


Inhale and exhale
Inhale and exhale and in
hale and exhale and


Cat’s eyes half open meet
mine from atop the bookshelf
and carefully close


Frozen air bites deep
Heat beneath the blankets
I burrow deeper


mosquitoes buzz close
breathing the fragrant air of
whispering cedars

  2. I love Murakami, and I take that as a high compliment.
