Am I wide asleep
I'm the dream grifter's real mark
Limbo is my home

Thank you very much. I love haiku, it's nice to be able to express so much thought in such a short and sweet manner. JB

Ah, JB! 'wide asleep' is excellent!! An enviable image. Lida Jo from Idaho.

Moon surtck again! This time a great surtck with 3 components of question, resolution and journey. The never ending question with no resolution and the desire to want more and more (humans are never satisfied with what they have)and at the end of the day it leads to a long journey well, I assume a journey of life which is still way far from humans reach (the desired destination) to get wholly the satisfactions they look for. :)That's how I look at it. The poet knows best, the readers make assumptions or giving some critical appreciations. Love it! Keep going, man! :)

Bleak winter morning
Color lost in maze of gray
Oh! A cardinal!

One of the best haikus I've seen. I know what the winter day looked like. That sudden flash of red of the cardinal is like a ray of sunshine.
