Short Haphazard Poems

moths emerge fly die
straight in the mouths of lizards
lights flicker to lie

flew right into your mouth, the

said you died...

Sentient beings  
taking devotion away;
Consistent people; 
Abuse them and they become 
your haphazard reflection....

Dragon wisdom’s curious;
centuries of it, possessed;
But, in the world of humans;
Haphazard, useless....

haphazard plans
careless and carefree
leaning where the wind heads
enjoying the journey
meandering wanderer
loving her life
living her dreams
following her heart...

OH DEAR WINTER

Oh dear Winter, her haphazard flashes.
Like a sword fight with chameleon clashes.
The cold nips her nose.
The heat balls and throws.
A woman’s clime with famed sugar crashes.

heavily haggard Helena’s haphazard hilarity of harmony
homogenized her humble habitat, in no way hampering her
humanitarian handicap. Hazy harshness hastened
a heartening of her highness’s high hopes for humanity....

when your life's like a kaleidoscope 
a multi coloured mess
when everything's haphazard
and you're seeing less and less
a periscope can help you find
what's going on above
but a telescope is useless
when you're looking for true love...

When the night dies and the horizon blushes with dawn's light,
I look around myself to find you by my side...
And all of a sudden everything falls back into their places,
Like pieces of a haphazard puzzle completed by your warm embraces.

shipbuilder’s nephew




. . . . flotsam and jetsam of culture 
drifted and piled haphazard 
a finger-drawn life structure 
while all the smells of fish and wrack
and shipwrecks linger anew
around this jumbled stack
a shipbuilder’s nephew . . . ....

Poetically sees ..
           time images, 
           in  bold mosaics 
of haphazard
          experiences..

scales of time
           in elastic pulses

spontaneous 
         irregular
            
breathed in 
      phenomena

a lopsided asymmetrical haircut is the one for me
I want my bangs cut into fierce dagger points
straight across and even is boring and bland

I am an artist; I like messy, sloppy, haphazard stuff
these ways suit me fine
in my dress, my surroundings and my man....

Issues of speech sounds
(something like a promise)
fall suddenly, helplessly
into ruins--
like a figure carved in crystal
becoming 
unexpectedly aware
of the sphere of mortal life--
the shards spill a haphazard course
thrusting into the area
of least resistance....

Whispers of crimson poetry
Nature's gentle voice sings to me

Taking me on an escapade
Through the thin black haphazard

Nudging me higher with each grip
The words waltz in my heart

Artless fireflies on a spring night

I
OPEN AS A BLOSSOM
EMBRACED YOU
I
WRAPPED MY MIND
AROUND YOU
WORSHIPED YOU
LIKE A GOD
FELT YOU IN MY BONES
AND BREATHED YOU IN
AT EVERY CHANCE
THEN THE DAY DAWNED
ON ANOTHER LOVE
LEAVING YOUR MYSTERY
LIMP AND DEFEATED
BESTILL THE NIGHT
MY HAPHAZARD DREAM
ENDS AS IT BEGAN.

In the mood to sleep
waddles of filthy people
by means of burrows
ahead of time for the swap
reeking with confusion
their legs move at a snail's pace
planned in a fairly haphazard way
the spine-tingling apex
will soon be within reach
a sludge of a grasp of the matter

Where are we to scatter the ashes when our flesh meets fire in the crematorium
For my ode forgery is the forbidden romance of the sky and the sea
Today I've decided to run the marathon of my past lovers
Ply my sinful body against thee
And when day draws the curtains and decides to love in the dark
I find myself writing about lust...

Refined on blazes
of judgments
haphazard
yesterday's zest
is a fortress
of embers

memorials burn
surrendering souls
into the fumes
plaguing your
emotions the
cinders awoke

allow the zeal
of the darkness
nudge you
to view
the yesteryear is near
a dimness &
not what
will last

In the place where I live,
there was nothing before...
No house, no constructions
it was total desolation...
Now they planted grain of
development, sowed
bricks, glass and tiles and
invented urban labyrinth
in the place of haphazard and stones...
But they brought regrettable
resulting from modernity:
Fear, terror, accidents and assaults...
Is this progress...!?...

turquoise, I’d rather be
then haphazard and choppy,
still

floaters show my age—
islands, a chain.

not far from Manhattan,
dropped in the valley—
estranged

from the Erie,
canal of my hearing
rearranged.

aloha,
doused in leis—
not all to my liking

but they tempered
my hide.

travelogue strides—
negativity
slides into the sea
precipitantly.

Red wires piercing through your skull shell
Like animal quills
Always pointing upwards
Challenging the sky

Your white cloud face
Casts shadows 
Over shoulder bones that balance you out
Don’t topple!

Scabs crawl the cord 
That stretches 
down and up and up and down
Your back

It’s hard to tell where you begin and end
You haphazard creature
Made of bits of this 
And bits of that

From soles to spikes...

Love once fertile,moving.strange
a runaway passion.A result of 
chance haphazard encounter.
A reckless coincidence?Perhaps!
the consequence ever remembered 
in mutual memory highlughted by
long lasting love.
