I love you, baby.
Let's hurry up and do it
Before mom gets in.






Love's only weakness
Is also its greatest strength:
It defies reason
- @Yojinbo:





A love so sincere
No loss to lustful wishes
Only you and I…


- Michele Langlo






love is but a wave
measure it’s height withyour heart
wave it back again
- June O’Reilly





Peeling your apple
in an unbroken spiral
our feet get tangled
-Chen-ou Liu






Haiku

BY ETHERIDGE KNIGHT
1
Eastern guard tower
glints in sunset; convicts rest
like lizards on rocks.

2
The piano man
is stingy, at 3 A.M.
his songs drop like plum.

3
Morning sun slants cell.
Drunks stagger like cripple flies
On jailhouse floor.

4
To write a blues song
is to regiment riots
and pluck gems from graves.

5
A bare pecan tree
slips a pencil shadow down
a moonlit snow slope.

6
The falling snow flakes
Cannot blunt the hard aches nor
Match the steel stillness.

7
Under moon shadows
A tall boy flashes knife and
Slices star bright ice.

8
In the August grass
Struck by the last rays of sun
The cracked teacup screams.

9
Making jazz swing in
Seventeen syllables AIN’T
No square poet’s job.
