Chain, chain, chain, chain of haiku fools

disintegration
is a big word to utter
it scares me to death

Levico · Sep 16, 2014

It scares me to death
The way you love to dance, pull
me away from here.

kkbe · Sep 16, 2014

Me, away from here
and you, rooted to the cause.
Diff'rent sides, same coin.

B.D. Eyeslie · Sep 16, 2014

Diff'rent sides, same coin,
but he could sure make us laugh.
Dude went off his meds.

jaus tail · Sep 16, 2014

Dude went off his meds
Anxiety tore him to shreds
fire eating threads

Albedo · Sep 29, 2014

Fire eating threads
Orb-weaver's work up in smoke
Spiral dream burns out

jaus tail · Sep 30, 2014

Spiral dream burns out
Fall back to reality
Welcome the despair

zanzjan · Oct 6, 2014

Welcome the despair,
wrap it in your cloak of fear,
then laugh! Make your light.

B.D. Eyeslie · Oct 6, 2014

Then laugh! Make your light
a beacon of sarcasm
on the rocks of angst.

zanzjan · Oct 6, 2014

On the rocks of angst
I barnacle-cling; your storms
cannot dislodge me.

onestepp · Oct 6, 2014

Cannot dislodge me
chiseled dank marble sculpture
raven's spell lifted

keiju · Oct 7, 2014

Raven's spell lifted,
From the nether emerges
An old king reborn.

jaus tail · Oct 7, 2014

an old king reborn
the young prince loses the crown
the queen starts to dance

CassandraW · Oct 7, 2014

The Queen starts to dance.
He: "Sorry, was that your foot?"
She: "Off with his head!"

ETA: Oh, dear, that wasn't very kind to the next person, was it?

jaus tail · Oct 8, 2014

She said, "Off with his head."
"It's a mirror," said the guard.
"This male hair is yours."

CassandraW · Oct 8, 2014

This male hair is yours
lying in the shower drain
coiled as if to spring.

(Ok. That's a bit better for the next person, I hope.)

jaus tail · Oct 8, 2014

coiled as if to spring
it's the purpose of pain to
grant a second chance

zanzjan · Oct 10, 2014

Grant a second chance
to this old fool. I promise
to be less myself.

CassandraW · Oct 10, 2014

To be less myself,
I hid behind a mask, but
I was still beneath.

keiju · Oct 10, 2014

I was still beneath,
Safe in mother's warm embrace,
To rise with spring's light.

Jack Oskar Larm · Oct 11, 2014

To rise with spring's light
And bird song
To dance on feathered feet

keiju · Oct 11, 2014

Dance on feathered feet,
My messenger of the gods,
Oh Hermes, my son.

Jack Oskar Larm said:
To rise with spring's light

Hey Jack, this thread follows the haiku syllable meter 5-7-5

CassandraW · Oct 11, 2014

Oh Hermes, my son,
Apollo's cows were one thing,
but where is my mail?

jaus tail · Oct 11, 2014

but where is my mail?
oh mailman that shirt looks wet
why not remove it?

zanzjan · Oct 11, 2014

Why not remove it,
This chain you put on yourself?
I fear myself, free.
