music becomes you.

someone’s knocking on the roof.
Crow comes for breakfast.

They’re a bit fuzzy because they were taken through a window.
At least that’s my excuse this time. 🙂 )

When you say haiku,
I say gesundheit,
give you a tissue.
.
When you say tanka
I say you’re welcome –
we are so polite.
.
When you say meter
I think therefore iambic.
Tell me you are too.
.
Can you play on words?
Maybe if they all had wheels
they could play on you.
