Stubborn Birds Ringing: Revolutionary ConTEXTing Rhyming Haiku

Birds singing sound like /
my phone ringing. I must change/
tones because they won’t.

Boundaries being/
respected may give results/
never intended.

She’s not ready. I /
thought she’d be. Maybe she’s just/
not ready for me.

Rhubarb. Strawberries./
Pinch of sugar. Small pot. Heat./
Summer’s ending treat.

OR
After I flipped the spoon out of the pot onto my hand…
Summer’s final burn.

I’ve learned that when you /
once had a crush, later you/
don’t like their face much.

When my friends need me,/
I’m always there. When they don’t/
I just disappear.

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

She says I goo her/
when I woo her. I’m cheesehead/
bred, so she melts me.

I’ll wait to wake you./
The moon’s setting in the West./
I wish you were, too.
