haiku wednesday - March 19, 2008
This week's words are money tangled understood
threat not understood tangled in Iraq quagmire blood for oil money money presented proposition understood nude bodies tangled tangled money mess divorce lawyers confuse me I understood love
jane, thanks for the comment. the first one is obviously in honor of the fifth anniversary.
pia, great to see you again... though it took me a while to understand what you meant. I finally got it, but at first I thought you meant the two were somehow connected.
nteresting how you weave the words into three separate poems. For me, it created a cohesion between the three. You could even think about joining them somehow. It's interesting how the word money can be seen in so many contexts.
I think the middle one was best. You could get hooked on that :-)
ReplyDeleteAlthough they are all good, I like the first one the best.
ReplyDeleteActually the third made me laugh which I need because of what you said on the first--that one was great
ReplyDeleteHave to say, I have no faves - like them all!
ReplyDeleteanthony, be careful out there... :-)

every one a gem in it's own area of expertise... that last one is a kicker!!!!
ReplyDeletei CANNOT pick a favorite because they are all fantastic. dammit.
ReplyDeleteAll excellent -- as usual. All with different themes ... no. one very good.....
ReplyDeleteWe're supposed to pick a favorite? I enjoyed them all.
ReplyDeleteIm a lover of the Haiku :)
I like them all. The second one, though, stands out.
ReplyDeletepjd,
ReplyDeleteYou have the gift buddy!
rel
a serious set of haikus (is haiku plural or singular?), so much in so little space.
ReplyDeletelove them! I like the 3rd best, good contrast with confuse/understood.
ReplyDeletePerfect adore them all - you're so darn clever ;)
ReplyDeletefirst for me....short and to the point! blood for oil, what has the world come to?

ReplyDeleteI like all! They tell so much!

Thanks again for the comments, all. I really enjoyed the diversity of all your creations as well.
ReplyDeletespoken well, sometimes we lose sight of whaz really going on... enjoyed the diversity of money you spoke of...i liked em all...
ReplyDeleteYou have an ability to say a whole lot in just seventeen syllables.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the third for its depth. Although the second--paying two girls to mudwrestle--was great, too :)
ah, bone, mud wrestling... you're the first to mention it, but I like that interpretation best of all.
ReplyDeleteI loved the last one. :)
