Seven Haikus by Cody Stetzel

Contributor: Cody Stetzel

- -
Lone

A child walks down
Streets paved by stone with hand held;
the pigeon flies off.


Admiration

Clouded day turns bright,
peon clouds part for monarch,
or eyes shift to you.


Necessity

Ceramic empty
plates reach, stir the pots again;
Distended stomach.


First Love

An empty meadow
the lark sings toward its mate;
no call is returned.


College

Tiger pounces out
from brush to land in water;
darkness cloaks lanterns.


Reality

When is dinner time?
It depends on what you are
eating: words or meat?


Inquisition

One fruit is bitten--
juice drips down his curving chin.
Demand another.
