Hopes for the blog:

enact kindness
create moments of pause for disclosure, discovery, stillness

built environments
perilous sensory load
k/nights without armour

  1. Nice haiku. Especially like the last line and the way it rolls out. and the playfulness with k/nights... needless to say. But there you go.

  2. the word perilous really drew me in. I can feel the environments and landscapes shifting and dropping away around me, denying them their taken for granted solidity as background. I love haiku's for their compactness. Thanks for this Harlequin :)

  4. Great words, I love the sentence in the middle, it is great. It has a life of its own. Also the last one inspires me to thinking. Makes me wanna be bullet proof indeed.

  5. Jon-yes, it's nice how the form is able to allow so much... the syllables are quite liberating that way... the k/night bit seemed to make its way through and made sense for me and for the people inhabiting the landscape
    Derliwall.. it's the compactness that is compelling, I agree; it pushes for every word to count.Glad that Perilous worked for you
    Pisces... great word play... thanks; I'd expect nothing less from a wordsmith like you!
    Mariana.. not sure any of us can ever be bullet proof, not as far as life landscapes are concerned, but I am glad the lines carried the load for you
