Here’s this week’s update on my 100 Days of Haiku challenge. Struggling for inspiration again some days this week, partly due to this f***ing cold which won’t go away.
Tandem, bike and trike,
penny-farthing, bone-shaker:
velocipedes all.
Tuesday 10 September
Absent mindedly
daily haiku forgotten.
Recovering now.
Wednesday 11 September
Sorting cutlery:
steel forks, and silver fish knives,
cake slice and crumb tray.
Thursday 12 September
Peach, grey, silver-gilt;
pale azure blue up beyond.
September sunset.
Friday 13 September
Doubt, lies and bullshit,
uncertainty, confusion.
All have gone cuckoo.
Saturday 14 September
Azure, semé of
cloudlets argent, a chief or.
Flyer’s escutcheon.
Sunday 15 September
Black and white Rosie
cat’s getting rather podgy;
much like the humans.
