BLAST OFF (photomorph) & "the beautiful box ... " (2 old dreamku) by Roswila

the beautiful box
may blow up in my face
dare I try the code

destroy or unlock this puzzle box is in my lap


[Both dreamed and written in October 2006, the second one made into a monoku today (from the usual three-line form). These are from the first and oldest of those ancient hand-written notebooks of my dream haiku/dreamku I’ve been posting from here recently. These two dream haiku were not originally posted as a pair. I wasn’t doing much posting of dream haiku/dreamku in pairs or larger groupings in those days. Photomorph “Blast Off” Screenshots-2 2-06-19[13] by Roswila]

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,
