Hay-Ku of the Day (Old Favorites List 2)

Old School: 

Playful old puppies
She frolics, he gently paws – 
Love in furry coats.  

Ambulance passing
Lights flashing in the night 
Life in the Balance. 

Waiting here at the 
Motor Vehicle Bureau 
Practicing patience. 

My soulful anguish
Mid-wife to Divine Glory 
Cosmic Labor pains. 

Tangled up in thought 
A Stranger in a far land 
Subject to nightmares. 

A basement cricket
Competing with my daydreams 
Who is more alive? 

Liquor Store Bottle
Easing with forgetfulness 
My soul sick sorrow. 

Slowly drifting off 
Thought and feeling pass away Practicing my death. 

Auger of desire 
Sharp cutting edge of despair
Bursting into Light.
