The green wolves run down
the snow covered mountains
a vision surreal

I have been drawing
a micro forest beauty
now my script tiny

My mind shapeshifted
from free-flowing rumbling words
to the tight HAIKU

can of sardines tight packed catch
without the tin can

This month of March ends
6 days to go, 6 days to
make my HAIKU count

I have 20 min-
utes before my pain pill
for 7 teeth pulled out

search for inspiration and
I am drowned in it

chases on air the green wolves
down the snow mountain

between last night and today
I have caught the flow
200325-0218
The white pill – tin cup

disembodied spirits close
flowing smiling by

paid no attention to my
creative passion

and watch it unfold

the people should close down the
stupid Trump terd clown

thunder the other night with rain

thoughts that strike through my dead brain
they are my movies

I walk the foothills
and see a special place.view
I snap a picture
1/6
At home I crop it
on my computer screen smile
desaturate print
2/6
The image I layout
the main parts begin to draw
then stand it up straight
3/6
I let my mind stare
long time or not I see it
develop a bit
4/6
I take it down and
begin to move it forward
stop stand it up straight
5/6
I do not push or
shove it or make speed demands
I let it flow out
6/6
200325-0311
It looks like I have
something new – cobbled HAIKU
HAIKU as a train
6/6x
