Haiku by Alexis Rhone Fancher


Haiku For My Beloved
 
I ask for breakfast,
Instead, he brings me flowers.
Am I still hungry?


He Searches For Reasons
 
material girl?
that was your complaint, right? Like
a car’s a bad thing?


The Plot Thickens
Once betrayed, twice shy.
Says he’s not that kind of guy.
Should I believe him?


Cruel Haiku To A Former Lover
 
there’s a touch of the
poet in everyone - well,
everyone but you.

How The Artist Sees The World
 
It’s about the light.
How it slants entire worlds
With its opinion.
 
 
 
Writer/photographer Alexis Rhone Fancher’s latest chapbook is Gidget Goes To The Ghetto. Her “pillow book,” explicit, came out in 2010.
