bch lod







i fold my future into swift compass points.
an oily rag flaps with wind driven ecstasy.
smoke rises from the heathen boulders.
brash birds litter a beach of dead jelly fish.

it's one of the reasons i read strange poetry in public :)

The image looks scrumptious(must be the color, your lines are short but sweet i cant get enough of this stuff.

it will sound pretentious of me but what i have been trying to do of late on my site is to create something very much of my own. a hybrid of haiku (with its minimalist approach) meets basho meets beefheart. i call it minima-B. not sure if i found something a little different but hey, i am trying.

Aaron Held said...

hey thats a cool idea!
