Castle made of brick.
The stone wall surrounding. Thick.
Who sits at the seats of the kingdom?
No one has seen them.
Then why all this praise at them?
That's the way it is.
Ahem.
I don't understand this. The way it is is an abscess. If I have never seen them, and here I sit in awe of them? I feel it's time to appraise them.
The words you speak are a sin! Why all this spin in the inn? We were merry before you arrived. Get out! Whilst you're still alive.
My apologies to you all. I meant no offence at all. Pass me that drink, and I'll sit here and think about how lucky we all are to live in this kingdom.
Hurrah!

His Haibun
He does not like poetry; I write it anyway and do not tell him. It's true his face is not a poet's face. It is round and open, youthful; too apt to be compared to the sun. His nose is neat. It is impossible to imagine him smoking a cigarette, terse, full of cheekbones and tension. His warmth burns my fingertips. I am here for his fascinating body, the haphazard freckles I touch one by one; he is here for my eyes, just my eyes. A sunbeam sneaks through the curtains and pierces us both, sizzling the spices of his skin. I inhale and wrap myself in him. He kisses my eyes.

The Great Uncoupling of 2229
“I realize there are still aspects of humanity that my kind cannot understand or appreciate….” The soft, airy voice resonating from the orb that trailed Teyhx through the hallway of her dorm pleaded with her to see reason. Though, ultimately, the decision was not hers anyways.
