Maikro: Haiku & Microfiction
Rating: 0 out of 5 stars
()
About this ebook
Maikro collects 112 haiku and 47 works of microfiction, most falling in the speculative fiction realm (science fiction, fantasy, horror) with a few literary pieces tossed into the mix:
slick sea stones glimmer
golden leviathan sinks
night soars on gulls' wings
wise elder wordsmyth
telling tales of earth that was
blue skies in our minds
Fallen Angel
Leathery wings tangled, she falls from heaven's love-making, crashes to Times Square. Rises from the crater. Smiles at the morning after.

Maikro - Milo James Fowler
haiku
mercury ripples
soaring wings filter sunlight
waves collapse in foam
––––––––
toes sink into sand
tides pull tide pools
life rushes away
––––––––
flower-bright eyes
broken stalks in muddy water
dying for love
––––––––
shrieks pierce silent nights
cowering chilled in wet tents
awaiting dawn's glow
swollen tomatoes
thoughts drift beyond gardens
heavy on her vine
––––––––
ethereal souls
urban cacophony
dancing through moonlight
––––––––
crimson mucous
life emerges in darkness
straining for release
––––––––
waterlogged pasture
horses stand on reflections
clouds stampede the blue
keeping my head down
so little of the day missed
until you appear
––––––––
pelicans soaring
fabric ripples in sunlight
kite surfing breakers
––––––––
greasy pigeons perch
spray-painted urban decay
gaunt squirrels on the hunt
––––––––
postmodern ballads
work for food need cash God bless
weathered cardboard signs
slick sea stones glimmer
golden leviathan sinks
night soars on gulls' wings
––––––––
windswept white-capped chop
emerald waves breaking at dawn
pelicans gliding
––––––––
two-lane country road
shower of light through the trees
streams of golden rain
––––––––
cotton peaks above
sunlight on the churning sea
foam tossed to and fro
temporal fracture
portal to another time
leave yourself behind
––––––––
new brand of guitar
chords unleash realities
rock out with myselves
––––––––
lost automaton
blinking with recognition
birds across the sky
––––––––
gorgeous mutation
watch her spread
