Thank You Haiku: Joyce Daniels, Donna Kersey, Robin Brox, Shanna Compton, Linda Russo

Thank you for contributing to our Kickstarter project! Here is your haiku!

Joyce Daniels:

Inside voice has tags
that jingle, rising from nurse
log of sister sound.

Donna Kersey:

Deep-fried fedora
sounds beneath lots of quilting
swagger, nickel quail.

Robin Brox:

Sugar mirror needs
fish net plus iridescent
catch to get tight with.

Shanna Compton:

Clap and the ground grows
out of itself, keeps count past
its extra fingers.

Linda Russo:

They ate everything
like headlines do, but you’re still
able to wrangle.

Thank You Haiku for Stephanie Anderson, Brooklyn Copeland, Hanna Andrews, Brenda

Thank you all for supporting our Kickstarter project! Here is your thank you haiku!

Stephanie Anderson:

Eight-armed prairie ghost
offers one skin you make out
of, splits open others.

Brooklyn Copeland:

Practical berry
deep in a very tall glass—
sugared each morning.

Hanna Andrews:

Long silk director
won’t leave the body alone:
so mod some trick skin.

Brenda:

Sand between saying
words: have a grit and angel
monster slash mirage.

Thank You Haikus: Valerie Loveland, Moe & Jess, Susan, Hazel McClure, Peter Murphy, Kathleen Ossip, Lilamini Neel, Shakespeare, Curtis Perdue

Thank you all for your contributions to our Kickstarter project! Here are your haiku!

Valerie Loveland:

Raining, a radish
peppers you with how-to, list
announces its end.

Moe & Jess:

Photograph glasses
in whole cross-country: purring
makeshift ignition.

Susan:

If mistranslated
the little red-head of dreams
turns out red-handed.

Hazel McClure (Take 1):

Chicken wings so rule
Give me all your chicken wings—
(Dagan helped with this.)

Hazel McClure (Take 2):

D’s story: a boy
spells broccoli wrong throughout
the book, but it’s fine.

Peter Murphy:

The number of pots
burnt through the bottom: at night
he’s always sandwiched.

Kathleen Ossip:

No one knew the dog
every film projected on
its white side, cloud bust.

Lilamini Neel:

Turnip pictures one
way to disappear  a night
pocketed, in need.

Shakespeare:

Pseudononymous
the dog takes it line by line
at our feet: A+.

Curtis Perdue:

Take the Roman out
of the word sounds: still feathers
quiver on the birds.

Day I spent with fronds
