Take time to break gears.

A Rose By Any Other Name: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Haiku

A rose by other/
names is only funny if/
you know the old joke.

Her house is tiny./
With secret nooks for grandkids,/
it’s a magic place.

She may decide: “No.”/
I may go down in flames, but/
I will be on fire.

Or
She may shoot me down in flames./
I’ll still be on fire.

Why look for events/
in the future while you’re at/
a concert right now?

A dream daughter’s “Yes”./
Your son’s request brings flooding:/
You weep tears of joy.

OR
When your dream daughter/
says yes to your son, you can’t /
help but cry for joy.

How fun! I’m jealous/
of grandkids, pool and sun, but/
mostly the puppy.

When she doesn’t look,/
I know that means she’s “busy”,/
or she doesn’t care.

Women worship strength, /
love and caring before they/
kneel at obelisks.

Barriers ahead?/
Figure possibilities,/
then do those, instead!

OR
Barriers ahead?/
Imagine the possibile,/
then do that, instead.
