Desire Stirs Old Memories: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

Feelings of desire/
stir in me old memories:/
Shame and foolishness.

Feelings of desire/
stir old mem’ries of shame and/
foolishness in me.

A Rose First Blossoming: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

Not knowing who first/
rose to see this, I’ll just say/
I’m glad feelings bloomed.

Why do we often/
fear anticipation of/
potential brilliance?

They spoke how they were:/
Finishing their rituals./
Should one stop good ways?

With morning’s longing/
I reach out for you. I just/
can’t stretch far enough.

With morning’s longing,/
I reach out for you. It’s hard./
You’re too far away.

I will have to be/
amazing to attract your /
own amazingness.

Not that they even/
care, but there are people in/
my prayers constantly.

The thumbnail moon hangs/
midst the mack’rel cloud sky, where/
you and I both see.

You took an object/
immovable, and broke it/
in two. And it grew.

My heart rate rises/
when you appear, and whisper:/
“Let’s get it in gear!”
