"God -- it's full of stars!"
Sat looking up at midnight,
took another puff

School hours are endless.
Students are often mindless.
Teach nevertheless.

Because we are happy birds.

@oristarA,
(shortened to five syllables despite the fact it's still a great haiku adjacent poem)

We are happy birds
our pecking order belies
our anarchic ways.

@Lash,
Forgetting the heart,
the cannibal fixated

On the cold liver,
a violin-playing fly
ran arpeggio

@Lash,
ran arpeggio
sauntered through oblivion
jogged your memory

@tsarstepan,
Jogged your memory,
Like a scent from long ago,
A whiff of the past

@firefly,
A whiff of the past.
Amaze me like I did. There's
so much that's happened.

@Eady,
So much that's happened
is forgotten or ignored.
Such is "history"...

@Seizan,
Such is history,
the lives of common people
are often ignored.

By folks too busy texting

@firefly,
To see the landscape
is to witness the forest
before the tall trees

Before the tall trees
Live only in story form
Walk through them again
