FIFTEEN HAIKU POEMS

 


FIFTEEN HAIKU POEMS

 

-       Ram Krishna Singh (India)

 

sunset--

smoke and mirror

muddy path

 

 

sky’s dark patches—

I live with earth’s rhythm

liberation

 

 

new moon

rocking her world—

twin flames

 

 

creepy shadows

along the muddy road—

bright moon

 

 

verandah—

touching her naked skin

morning breeze

         

 

full moon

a frozen dot—

deaf beyond

 

 

giant wind--

sail through the cavity

in the tide   

 

         

smoked fish

in the elevated hut—

honeymoon

 

 

in the wild

inner echoes—

dragonfly

 

 

red with shame

the sky at sunrise

one more kiss

 

 

travelling back

from the waves of bliss

a foam-leap

 

 

hidden between the sheets

my smothered senses—

salted honey

 

 

half of my mind on God

and the other half on sex:

eternal hunger

 

 

two lizards

inside the switchboard

turned on

  

  

the fire blazes up

from body to mind to speech

heat is what we eat
