blog cacophony
This week's words arecajole
recluse
temper
Still smarting from the humiliation of getting one of the words wrong last week. Yikes. In fact, I was so overcome with shame that I failed to post even one single blog post all week. OK, that had more to do with being overworked and overfamilied, but still. Man, I had a HARD time with these words this week. Maybe I should change one of them.
recluse, night pacing
moon's temper of rain-damped smoke
cajole the sunrise
cajole a wan smile
recluse no more, I concede
temper pain with love
cajole, or avenge?
black widow bites brown recluse
freed from his temper
wow, aren't you in Vegas? yet you're still writing - "correct" words or no, I'm impressed
ReplyDeleteWhat a giggle - your narrative made me laugh out loud - I do remember, you know! Therefore, the third one is truly well done and my favorite although the others have lovely images as well.
ReplyDeleteI hated to point it out, but as teh caretaker, I felt it was my duty...
ReplyDeleteYou've redeemed yourself and more. Tough words for haiku.
Your intro made me smile...I like your sense of humor. :~)
ReplyDeleteThe third one was vivid! I enjoyed all of them, though~~
Tough words! I like the second one; you used the words well in that one, I thought.
ReplyDeleteI like the third one best! Although I'm not sure one spider is better than the other for us...lol.
ReplyDeleteI like the 2nd one. Keep writing.
ReplyDeleteIf not better the narative was as good as the actual post. :)
ReplyDeleteI liked all of them, but louuvvhhed the third one. It seems to be a public favourite too (for obvious reasons :) ).
I love the image brought about by the spider bite - well done.
ReplyDeleteYour hiakus are always amazing: I couldn't dream of making them work. It's a gift you have.
Ooooooh, I love #1.
