5 - 7 - 5
Welcome to the haiku club
Haiku are a form of Japanese poetry that are written in three lines with a syllable count of five, seven, five. But don't let that stop you writing whatever you like. There are no fascists here and any contribution you wish to make is welcome. Here we seek the sublime, and if we can't have that, we'll just have a laugh. It's all good.
With the current picture as your inspiration, pile in to the comments and have a go. At the end of the week I pick five and put them on the front page.
As the Japanese say - Let's enjoyment haiku!
selfishness.......selflessness
Everything here is an expression of this continuum. Otherwise, the only certainty is change.

Excellent photo John. A thousand thoughts flow. Back tomorrow.
worlds burning in war
stars dance around makara
all transformation
folly in concrete;
a dance that never made sense,
the audience dead

humans burn alive,
their culture rains down as ash.
elsewhere a bird sings
From Belgium
Dance, dance macarbre
Radiation in the air
Or plagues of lizards
burn down the old ways,
throw blood thirsty ghouls our way:
dance to your own tune.
Here's a funny thing John. This photo is the flipside of a pic I posted already. Interesting to compare I reckon.

inside out Matisse
gaiety rendered leaden
colour washed away
Oh yes nobody the Matisse, it's like it has become inverted.
dance from life to death
evil moves across the earth
innocence transformed
