Lamentation Twenty Six

A Haiku for Lovers


The Moth and the Lamp, Cesar Santos 

The moth says "Your love
sets me aflame." The flame says
"Yours suffocates me."

This Cesar Santos picture is Tess Kincaid's prompt for Mag 187.

  1. desires of the heart can both burn and suffocate as love can be complex...

I welcome your comments, the gloomier the better. I don't think there's much hope, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested in what you have to say. If you expect me to approve your comment before it appears, you're about to be disappointed. Never have understood why some hypersensitive bloggers need to see what others say before they allow the comment. Poor, sensitive wee souls.
