RANDOM HAIKU
–
Darkness moves quickly,
Enveloping our evening…
Dark and cold arrive.
–
Favorite desk chairs,
Alternate when they’re needed…
Smooth rolling’s fun!
–
We “have” sprinkler room,
The other side of a wall…
Normally locked tight!
–
Enough to pay bills?
Struggling now to pay them down…
Can we survive long?
–
Moaning wind in trees,
Howling wolves attack weak does,
Resourceful nature.
–
Loneliness of man’
Searches for the eternal…
Arms of a woman!
–
–Jonathan Caswell
A LONESOME HAIKU
–
No mail in the box
Wi-Fi turned off—what a loss!
Nobody loves me.
–
-Jonathan Caswell
H.A.L.T. REPRISE…# 1.
Hunger, Anger, loneliness and exhaustion,
Wheedling the guard of the bastion…
Into opening gates,
For thin-ice skates
Throwing away the drawstrings of caution!
–
Loneliness, Tiredness–both–
Wearing down adherence to oath…
Got to stay strong,
Keep moving along,
Avoiding the slitting of throat.
–Jonathan Caswell

Kitty kat lovers unite,
You have some help in your fight…
Against loneliness
Someone to caress,
As long as the cat doesn’t bite.
–
An either/or custody
Arrangement is fine with me…
If I were looking
For a cat-lover booking,
Then I could go there and see!
–
The site really does exist,
But it’s too late for me to be kissed…
By another cat lover
Or not any other
Than the one that I have “un-missed”!
–Jonathan Caswell
