Outnumbered by loud engines and concrete blocks
Furious crowds and mobs ignore your existence
Till you clutch your way back home...

summer mowers ricochet
Drivers, engines on!
Stalwart warriors taste thy blade

We go, jump out, soaring down
Thrust up, floating to the ground....

At the starting line
Engines revving vroom, vroom, vroom
Burning rubber - GO
Flags are waving zoom, zoom, zoom
Better stop now for new tires...

Sprung
Flow
Into
A springtime
Reversal sing
A random tune that reminds you of home
Somewhere time stops for those broken, alone;
Carry on then
Full ahead
Engines
Stop...

Coming To Nairobi
Like a lazy patient serpent
Machines line up to an infinite stretch
Yonder is Nairobi, barely minutes
Away, only if traffic would thaw
No option but enjoy the engines' hum...

Springtime on the Donets
Clownish yaw engines
Spin us about
The blue sphere we inhabit
Its future in doubt
Our cumulus cloud shroud
Conceals the pain
Of tanks, missiles and pogroms
And unburied slain...

Playing With Fire
If you play with fire you'll surely get burned
Lighting fire to the drapes, attention it earns
Not a great idea
Leads to diarrhea
Fire engines blaring, causes extreme concern...

The Age of Steam
The age of steam has surely long gone
Engines puffing away like gracful swans
Creating puffy white clouds
Like “look up here” out loud
A delightful glorious scene to gaze upon...

Sky King
Up in the clouds...
the sound is so clear...
Twin engines so loud...
what awakens the ear!
Clearer and nearer...
the heavens now bring...
the roaring soar of the song bird....
The flying cowboy..Sky King....

Searching with Google
Searching
With Google
Is a perpetual
Desire for
Knowing something
Not presently known..
Search engines
Providing millions of
Opportunities for
Masking of the
Freedom of
Not knowing......

Haiku 6 - Motor Cycle, Jet Aircraft, Ocean Liner
motorcycle roars
penetrating the quiet night
shattering the silence
aircraft on the runway
jet engines scream before lift off
to the clouds above
on the waterfront
ocean liner calling her flock
- the loud blaring horn...

Sometimes Lucky Some Times Not
I’m bad luck, wife left, house possessed, now I’m on a plane ride
Engines fail to the ground we sail got to save my hide
Yes! I’m lucky today
One pound a parachute I did pay
Oh bad luck as croc infested waters I glide...

Mccain Engine Started To Switch
McCain Engine Started To Switch
McCain plane engine should start to switch;
Even though in system there may be glitch;
His engines failed;
Downward sailed;
He bailed out in an effort that is last ditch.

Wake Up Call
A distant motorcycle drones
Fading away
“that” dog barks
It must be 8:15
A bus honks
A siren sounds
Jet engines overhead
A quick dream
The furnace kicks in
Breakfast!
Maybe pancakes?

Engines
We are engines
not autonomous,
we need for
safe driving
two engines....
mine and yours..
My dear !
That's how we work. !...
