Haikus on Noise and Sparkles

Posted by on Feb 17, 2018 in Haiku

gunked vocal cords – meow
rain accompanied by sirens
forced boredom… hello ideas

~Theodore Maestranzi

Sparkles was staring at me and meowed.  She hadn’t in awhile and I found it funny because she had groggy meow.  I love when she meows at me after not meowing for awhile and it doesn’t come out right.

A silent meow
coughs, babies screaming, dogs barking
Please come back ideas

~Theodore Maestranzi

While sitting and forcing myself to experience boredom, every possible noise began to cascade around me.  I was having a productive day until every people forced their lives into my idea space.  Oh well, got a haiku out of it and a short story.
