We're noticing a trend for writers to start pushing the boundaries of haiku (& related Japanese short forms) in to more erotic (or should that be erogenous) zones. Here are four haiku for the weekend…
thunder and apple blossoms
her naked presence in the orchard grass
*****
rising out of the mountain lake
pink tips
pucker to
peach pits
*****
sea salts
her need finds a helping hand
*****
under a nude pearl sky
touching the lake with her sex
* Larry Kimmel is a US poet of both haikai and mainline forms. His most
recent books are: this hunger, tissue-thin and Blue Night & the
inadequacy of long-stemmed roses (Modern English Tanka Press).
