Mundane Wanting: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

If you’re not needed/
for the mundane things, are /
you really wanted?

If you’re not wanted/
in the mundane times, you’re /
not really wanted.

Sometimes the doldrums/
of the everyday leave you/
with nothing to say.

If you keep looking /
for reasons someone’s not good/
enough, you’ll find them.

There is a woman/
I’m crazy about. She does/
NOT like third person.

She does/
NOT like royal she.

I don’t need to get
my own way. I want to be
heard and understood.

I don’t know how to/
say I’m sorry for wanting /
to see you too much.

He forgets she wants /
to drive the bus. Good thing he’s/
a mass transit fan.

She was so good at/
putting up walls, it wasn’t /
long before he learned.

I never wish to/
stop swaying. It reminds me/
of our slow rhythms.
