pink-purple sunrise;
birds sing, children laugh -- I want
to kill, kill them all.

   *  *  *

Watch out!
They're building
walls.

    *  *  *

the girl is silent --
she wants to taste
your skin.

    *  *  *

Sunrise:
drank my coffee
hours ago.

    *  *  *

Sunset:
weatherman talks
of snow.
5 haiku from my notebook (well, laptop, anyway), arranged in semi-chronological order. Not a form I regularly write in.

I like the second and fourth ones best, and especially the fourth one. I'm going to sound like a teenager now: I can relate to it.

And now I'll stop that silliness.
I don't think the first and third one are very haiku-ish ... I'm no expert, but killing people and interpersonal relations doesn't say haiku to me. But what do I know.

The last one is just meh to me. I don't know why really, but it just did not strike the same cord as 2nd and 4th. Pretty pointless of me to write then, since I can't say why, but oh well. There you go.
