Meditations on the Half Shell: A Haiku String
By A.J. Huffman
Posted on
Waves leave me stranded
My body recalls the pull
of salty siren
I echo remorse
My shell an amplifier
of solitude
The sun rises
My body warms to resolve
accepts stasis
Hours tick like time bombs
Metronomic visions
of feet and feathers
Owning neither
I sink further into sand
pretend I am coffin
Waiting for death
I discover a new concept
Regeneration
The world moved forward
into perceived reversal
I am recycled
Arms of tomorrow
embrace me like yesterday
I breath as if I am home.
