Piery's Shore (II) by Leonard M HawkesRight gaze, left gaze, grip.
Kindled blood stokes fleeting fire.
Icy clutch of lust. 02/27/2002 Posted on 02/27/2002 Copyright © 2025 Leonard M Hawkes

Posted by Glenn Currier on 02/21/03 at 06:51 PM This is a superb haiku. The contrast of fire and ice with the image of the "clutch of lust" (near rhymes but not quite -- honoring the haiku form) is effective and powerful. |
