The skeleton waits
Left some time by a killer
Rotting and decayed
Crying loudly as a ghost
Who will avenge my murder?...

in front of a decayed installment
there were two figures
one observer
posing in front of the installment

I Found a Lovely Button
I found a lovely button
put it in a lovely clay pot with good soil
and watered it religiously each day
with time and love
it decayed
and rotted away...

Salvation
In the mirror She sees
a heap of decayed images in fire,
Smoke cladding her soul
her pulse in hibernation
... a delusion?
... or the quest for liberation!...

I Have Become Ash
I have become ash
Decayed for decades
What happened?
To my lithe thoughts
And deft digits
That could churn
Heaviness into brevity
And paltry pursuits
Into wee nuances...

In Strangler's Wood - Tanka Version
At a dead man’s throat
lies the rain drenched woolen scarf
that stifled his screams.
Cold Winds howl through decayed trees -
witnesses in the shadows....

Memory
pressed flowers, held dear of someone lost
turned crisp
between yellowed pages
which have begun to stick
once beautiful
now decayed and lost once more

Obsessed with body parts... who me you say?

This naughty old man
Experience I've got, though some parts have decayed...

Decayed Flowers
Flowers were seen covering the tree yesterday,
Today they have fallen into the pond in decay.
The hard blow of the east wind is not to blame,
Blooming and withering are naturally the same.

A Health Nut
Daddy was a health nut, ran five miles a day
Was proud as hell, more proud than I can say
Eat sensibly like him
But not nearly as trim
Working on it but at 20 years older, more decayed...

Fallen Flower
The setting sun is blocked by the parting grief,
Yet, I’m glad to head for remote world in relief.
As decayed fallen flowers are not ruthless stuff,
They turn into earth to make darling buds tough.

Luminol

Seemingly slight brocade shawl.
Beseechingly glance, decayed hall.
Haunted trance, unafraid fall.
Vaunted skies evade all.
She tries dissuade call.

Society
How does a healthy rose with grown thorns
Take the time out of their day
To degrade a decayed rose without any thorns
For having to grow up in poisoned soil
That the planter so willingly decided to bury them in?...

A Conflict Within
Low and lonely, but not to succumb
Through warring thoughts a pitfall deep
Ireful, rueful, contort
This speaker’s blunder deemed
Subdued with met solution
Devil’s plot decayed
Ruinous intent aborted
Blithe courage keenly resumed...

A Beggar's Soul
On a corner one day
And another the next
I pay a high price
Just to be in debt
As awnings sway
And angels pray
Keep me safe another day
I owe you not now or then
But my pain is forgotten
Your spoils displayed
Decayed and rotten....

Morning Mind
*3 haikus*
I am enjoying
this dull time - this decayed life
of extinguished hopes
Each sublime sunrise
finds my morning mind childishly
wishing for freedom
If wishes had power
If young tears were a vaccine
If our thoughts mattered...
