Drowning In You (a wee poem)
I’m drowning in you
slipping the binds that hold me
hands on flesh anchor

  1. Nice one! Happy Poetry Monday!


  2. Great haiku
    I wish I could do it too
    My sin is wordiness


  3. ditto what wylie said - wordy-rhi, that’s me. that’s why i think haiku is so elegant and powerful and beyond my ability to write. hmmm - maybe we should make one of these poetry monday’s a haiku challenge?


  4. This is great! I’m too wordy too for haiku. Novel, that I can do.


  5. I think sex is the perfect subject for haiku. There are a million, small observations about sex that say so much.

    I love novels about sex, I write em all the time. But with haiku, you can boil the subject down to a pinpoint focus. Just a breath, a gasp, a touch. I love it.


  6. What an elegant piece — thanks for sharing it! I wish I could write haiku, but unfortunately, succinctness is not my forte. :D


  7. Yay! I’m having fun being part of the poetry train. Love reading all the poems. =)


  8. Nice! I haven’t been here lately. I like the new layout! :D


  9. I love wee poems - and this one is lovely!!
