HUNT FOR THE SUN (photomorph) & MEN ON THE HUNT (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

MEN ON THE HUNT

why do so many men seem
attracted to her at a distance,
their attention clearly hooked
when their eyes meet, but once
they're in a little closer lose interest
(is that ancient jealous god she can't
even see anymore, still hovering
at her shoulder?) and why, oh why,
do they move in further
only for the kill,
not for the kiss

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
