2 Unhaikus on Living
by Rula ShinScreaming, complaining children
Raise a screaming, complaining self
Once buried, now rising from its grave
Death from moment to moment
Reminds ME to ease back into NOW

| Posted by Paul Lastovica on 05/26/16 at 01:05 AM I like the contrasts presented here; and the concept that raising kids in turns raises a new (and perhaps unexpected) version of ones self; or perhaps calls forth from the past an older version of the self one thought long buried and over-come ;) - and then the second unhaiku comes along and says "Back, get back old me. I am not you anymore" ... or something. |
