ROADrage-ian Haiku #4

Teeth inhale sweet scrap

J. D. Nelson - Five Poems

***

1. the corner of the milk

glass text for 81

the blue cube code

earth

with its many armies

this setting

in the dark

with the words

wearing my nike heat jeans

*** 

2. we don’t & do

future wolf is inside-out today

future wolf in time

            time

                                   time

what is this today yasteddy

something like the nice icely

sad like that friend

wearing the spaghetti hat

*** 

3. we should start a soda war with earth

the little burd

was an egg-plant

more of the snakes

earth eating earth

rhombus a claire

cow hum

***

4. overlord pants

inner ear cloud

the flute of caw!

corner rat

think “T”

for tender

spine rid

rate goat

got slimp

right pilaf says

demand denim!

***

5. feeding upon the crumbles of glass

                        the nocturnal earth

it was a color of green                       in the sea

to get inside the morning

when I do

i heard something about

shuffle, shuffle

you keep on the creeping side

elope with a rattlesnake

would you like a torch?

no, I’m fine –

I have a burning loaf of bread

AG Davis - Three Poems

1 ENTRIES PHOTO

haft noshes glee

transparency sheathed

reddening ached hoeing

dhotis

of regime's pyre neglect

deeming sized anodes

hoop-boa for orphic idioms

patois of the cadaver

gulch awed in profundity rapt

as e-mince terrine

to sty pardons bequest

these ads conglomerate

gab

in ought-foggy

questions that  

gnash poles apart

denoting high-flying eyes

or

withdrawing keen on
human gneiss

an epidemic entrance

some perfunctorily

experience bogging lass

in the piss of the sky

illumining togged

untaught offhand

the lupine doss

and equilibrium shatters

with  

the validity of the gaze

represses netted by the

broad-minded inferno

goes pertinently

jarred and ego bare

rapacious at exclusionary

jilts in concert with

shad-fly acquaintances

a round-table interleaves

my slit-wrist sunup

owns jests

tar quipped

for righteousness

a ghoul jailing gull

so obverse

and mundane

the satanic vertigo

of ancient fractions

that peel forlorn bells

in plasticized

cerebellums

Keith Higginbotham - Three Poems

***

1. World Shit Mask

Through fraudulent shadows

Expect sinew/;

buildings homesick

the high salient struggling,

a bag

Of butchers in a chair,

Kingdom of lowbrow anthems

Airbrush the séances, unbearable grasses

Of peppered scars.

Mirror on the mouth making things worse.

It’s no mirror,

said the Southern

gunshot

spun toward applause.

***

2. Giant

The man no. 754 is dented

from metal

can in fire skyline the

The the the chrysanthemum power

Giant black chicken-of-the-woods

***

3. Aeroplane

big eyes encased in

moontop on lap as on

the eminem

converged

consciousness of

filament villas big

of something

mornings spent in preparation of

post sunset suicides

misguided

lightning

the afternoons

about light
