This was jacked offa myspace, but here goes:

The idea is this: You write a haiku starting with the line the last haiku ended with. The next person replies to THIS thread and the person after that replies to THAT thread...follow?

So I'll start:

Dana Owens sings
in mellow jazz tones ... crooning
doo wop, singing love

doo wop, singing love
a quartet of heart and soul
captured in one voice

captured in one voice
ears danced in the gentle breeze
open to love's rhythm

open to love's rhythm,
our silhouettes dance under
horizontal wind.

"At least embarrassment is not an imitation.
It's intimacy for beginners,
the orgasm no one cares to fake.
I almost admire it. I almost wrote despise." -Alice Fulton

"The future is a grey seagull
Tattling in its cat-voice of departure.
Age and terror, like nurses, attend her,
And a drowned man, complaining of the great cold,
Crawls up out of the sea."
-Sylvia Plath

"I would like to be the air
that inhabits you for a moment
only. I would like to be that unnoticed
& that necessary." -Margaret Atwood

horizontal wind
pulling me far from my love
into solitude

-----Week's sig--------------

Don't think about being. Just be. Really be.

into solitude
we make poetic rhythm
from our minds eye

surrender to love

surrender to love
give in to inhibition

"I really believe that if there's any kind of God, he wouldn't be in any one of us -- not you, not me, but just this space inbetween. If there's some magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of understanding someone else, sharing something. Even if it's almost impossible to succeed, but who cares, the answer must be in the attempt."
