ARTS: Your Haiku!

[Tai Shi]

I peer into autumn night sitting
On my easy chair, no COVID
In my site no Covid no pain
In dense days ahead developing
Dire Americans, Joe will deliver.
Be in South Dakota to pause.
Covid 19 is worse than ever,
We need politicians without death.

Your Haiku!

I fold my warm fingers, warm
With safety while others suffer
Am I a cheat or liar, my mind restless without honesty, I seek only loving kindness Metta Sutra May there be care in the eyes of all parents, May all
Children love and be loved. May mother’s days be left quiet, slow and happy.

Lovely, Tai Shi! Do you think those should be in the poetry section rather than haiku?

Hallowe'en lantern

How did you find out they publish Poets from your Britton? Do you speak and write Chinese?

Yes, very cool! Why the translation?

Chen-ou Liu, who writes the blog, is a bilingual haiku poet who takes English Language Haiku and translates them into Chinese, presumably for a mostly Chinese audience.

So, I potentially have 1.4 billion new readers!

Dear friend, Kokuu please move my lines to poetry, I only now learn
Of Haiku un riddled un bride led
She has been mother of our child.

Your Haiku!

My warm inner world of pain
Waits for fall colors of my throat
For MS medication which takes
My inner skeleton to relaxation!

Invisible white world of Tonglen
Revolts with blue smoke revoked
My essence in dry uneven path
To harrowing hell of medium mind!

Each day I sit free to brown
Depth of Autumn days with
Hope of moon I cannot see.

Haiku

Thinking shrinks the world
Non-thinking expands the world
Simply be as thus

The flip-flop is necessary. Pain is neither think nor feeling; it just is requires special treatment of both breaking dual realizations; thus level 10 pain well handled in body with MS medications, feeling is thinking, feeling is thinking, thinking is feeling. This is not the poem, this is the poem, light is dark, dark is light there is no distinction. Autumn the time of year, the protagnist cannot see the moon because his neck bones are locked in place, spine at 50 degrees. Body slumps to the left, sometimes the protagnist just falls over. How would you suggest person might not coplain while judging reality? I see your complaint, so please address constructive criticism while now you know the reality. I suggest lines one foot step before the other-- how many poets have used the same lines of this poem? Nice alterations--I like it. See 12 step recovery throughout literature, "one step before the other." Ha I like the humor, "Fancy a sandwich." Sandwich a fancy. This is real poetry.
This is literary criticism; is it not poetry. Allow Jundo, no harm done, just observations from one who knows. This was my job for 48 years. I worked longer than most members were, are alive "pitty," what's the harm, what is Autumn, Spring, Winter, and All? Spring and Fall. "Marget why are you grieving/ for golden groves unleaving...?" GM Hopkins. "It is Margret who you grieve for." "Thinking shrinks the world" turns duality on its head. "Each day in Autumn, Silver Moon I cannot bend my head" Do you think this merits a look" More the black night enshouds my "face."

Which comment are you referring to here, Tai Shi? I cannot see what you are referencing.

My mistake, I've been asked not post but two poems a pay, and I suspect that mean Haiku as well. See you soon, back in two weaks.
