EMOTION
Selected Haiku
by
Michael
Worth
RAW
EMOTION is the first collection of haiku from Michael. The
title is the best description of the haiku. He would like
to thank his girlfriend, the tobacco companies, and all the
girls that scorned him, for the material used in these haiku.
A very special thank you also goes to Dr. Randy Brooks for
evolving his senses and showing him the way of haiku. Enjoy
the ride.

long
journey home
the moon reflecting off the cherry
of my cigarette
|
|
| |
a
smoke ring billows
I finally did it!

cigarette
on the porch
the breeze and Holden Caulfield
keep me
company

smudged
fingerprints
magnified on the car window
sun hits them just right

Another
one gone
I need to make my
mind wander
old
vices comfort me

playing
under the covers
giggling like school children
another rainy day
|
broken
glass
empty dashboard
they
nabbed my favorite CD

a
dark
room
paradise
laying
together
I
breathe
you
in
|
looking
in
her
eyes
a
mural
infinite
variety
of
blue
