you forgot to mention voices, multi-character thought patterns, and the strange sudden urge to destroy furniture.
good though. i can tell you actually had some experience with sleep dep and meth.
Maneaters, yes, a pair. Mother and son.

AH, i see. confusion cured. :)
oh jesus christ.
GROW SOME BALLS. i expressed my hatred to my mother straight to her fucking face.
you actually wrote and posted this here for HER?
couldnt you use a little piece of paper for that so you could hang it on the fridge? fucking imbecile.
It's a pancho from South America.
blah blah blah -- your ordinary off the wall bathroom stall scrawl.. *fart* 0
an improvement, you have been struggling for awhile, but this is proof that there is hope. 7.
the 6-7-6 one was better.
Now the first line sounds like all women rather than all they want.
And the third destroys the flow a bit.
Sorry I couldn't help, maybe if you put the first version on and asked for help someone might have an idea
I prefer the first one even though it was not strictly a haiku. (3rd line what follows is neither)
As for 'all women', I did think that was a bit generalist. But the power of this poem is its logic how the 3rd line concludes the premises of 1 and 2.
Sorry I can't help
that was meant to be "couldn't", saying lack of a flow may have been created by sleep dep.
hmm. meth makes it make a lot more sense. odd, that.
huh? the last line doesn't make sense to me. You're also taking a risk when you say "All women" is that ever true?
This is great! Anyone who wants to understand how image imparts meaning, and the emotion the poet is trying to express, should take a look at this poem. You stay right with the metaphor throughout, well done.
Well, it's good to see this side of things, but it's all sentiment and no vision. How was the chidhood not perfect, how did you do your best? You need to give the reader images, not sentiment, the images impart the sentiment, that's how poetry works. You should give it another go. Try to discribe what has actually gone on. When's the last time you saw this child? Discribe that to me, the first time you saw her/him, what your hopes were, literally. A home? Laughter? Don't just say 'I had so much hope for us', blah, blah, blah.
sleep deprevation caused by meth. "I could find much of one?"
And a fat see through scorpion
Poisonous, & barbed kisses
full of babies.
-i had a crystal clear vision of the scorpion, and i like it.. i wish i could paint it and hang it on my wall, but im a poet because i couldnt draw worth a fuck.
btw, whats a ruana?
blessed with nine.
very interesting form. it took me a few to get what you'd done. actually, a few more than that, really. almost a minute or two of unrelated thoughts until it popped in (oh).
as for the content. cute, mostly amusing. 8 for ingenuity and the mostly amusing.
