Folded Hedged Hushed

by Susan Cowger 4 Comments

Folded like a map
Hedged in darkness, a scion
Hushed as a closed book

    A heart, rock-encased
    A worn red, quivering raw
    Where deep ache resides.

    Prevail.

    Scott:
    A torrent of words
    Angles toward forehead her
    Hand covers my eyes

    All you need is love dut da-dah da-dah, all you need is love dut da-dah da-dah, all you need is love love, love is all you need. Haiku are like icing–sweet but not entirely necessary.

    Bethany–nice take on the Rose under black skin.

    scion is a word I dig muchly.

    African onyx,
    Ebon cloak of ink, smile wide
    Out shines rosy cheeks
