Alexander Cresswell's haikus

These started as an exercise in creative writing, but seemed to get out of control...

 

I don't like writing haikus...

Sharp ice, not water
No freedom to flow or dance
Much too difficult.

..but I do like chips:

Warmth between cupped hands.
I taste frost and vinegar
Mingling in my mouth. .

... and I really hate being late:

Resignation blooms.
I trudge to the distant stop,
As the bus speeds past.
