eyelids decompress
nocturnal oblivion
subliminal sea

Author's Note: This is my first haiku. Critique welcome, I'm not so sure about it yet. It kinda has a nature reference.

For some odd reason this makes me think of Soylent Green. It is lovely and has great imagery!

Not bad for a first trot out the barn door. You have the magic 5-7-5 syllable combination. Nowadays, it commonly accepted that there are variants to the old standard nature theme, combining man and nature as you've done here. Cheers!

Wonderful imagery, and yes, good start to a haiku career. Look out Basho! ;-)
