THE DREAM PUSHES ON (photomorph) & "entrancing: the wee ..." (non-dream haiku) by Roswila

entrancing: wee brown
salamander doing push ups on
the sunny sidewalk

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.

CURLING UP FOR A NAP (photomorph) & A DEWY NEW BIRD (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

a dewy new
bird of paradise bud
rests on the curved back
of its blooming neighbor,
hitching a ride under
the wide open sky

WRANGLING WITH THE NIGHT (photomorph) & UNCOMMON (free verse dream poem) by Roswila

UNCOMMON

reading the list
over and over,
item by item,
each purported
to be medicine
for something
else that ails her,
listed first
by its common
name, and then
the Latinate one:
the one she savors
saying out loud,
rolling it on her
tongue like candy,
each syllable
popping and
clicking in her
mouth like
the candy she
should not eat
(but does when
a binge downs
her as surely
as some
handsome
wrangler),
wishing all meds
were as easy
to take as these
delicious, multi-
syllabic, very un-
common words
