Lune Nonsense

Try these; they're fun. Similar to haiku, this poetry form is short and should focus on concrete imagery. But play with it how you like. Instead of keeping track of syllables, watch words. 3/5/3 is the simple format for the stanza.

Haze chokes me.

What happened to blue freedom

where birds soar?

Jalapeno stings my

chewed thumb, chapped lips, eyes;

more failed salsa.

Broken piano keys

remind me of unfinished songs

humming inside you.

Pizza bakes golden

while I hide away lonely,

waiting for you.

Smell dinner burn,

roasted like fiery potato bugs

camping last summer.
