Haiku thread 2
We had some fun last time.
Same thing, post your own haikus, or write them right now, or post haikus that you like (Basho, Buson, Issa, Shiki?) and comment them.
Once again, your own haiku doesn’t have to be extremely well-made and rule-following, but try to do your best.

I have wrote some other small poems, lame-haikus.
Once again I used 3 verses of 10 poetic syllables. The originals are in Portuguese. I will post the translations followed by the originals.
Young prostitute girl, the night and the skies are cold,
But the dew that embraces you: is it more cold
Than the warm loneliness of a strange bed?
The tolling of the bells of twilight
Has the scent of the autumnal woods.
The sun withers and falls; it is time to sleep.
Frogs croak in the swamps on night, far away,
And yet I sleep. Hatred, famine and war thunder
In the world, it is day and there is sun, but I…well, I sleep.
Silverfishes gnaw books, they do not read them: sages
Preach for the vacuum inside their entrails.
Have I the guts of Silverfishes for a brain?
The originals:
Moça meretriz, frios a noite e os céus,
Mas o orvalho que a abraça, é ele mais frio
Que a morna solidão da cama estranha?
O badalar dos sinos do crepúsculo
Tem o aroma dos bosques outonais.
O sol murcha e cai; é hora de dormir.
Rãs coaxam nos brejos da noite, ao longe,
Mas eu durmo. Ódio, fome e guerra estrondam
No mundo, é dia e há sol, mas eu...eu durmo.
Traças roem livros, não os leem: os sábios
Pregam ao vácuo dentro de suas vísceras.
Terei eu tripas de traça por cérebro?
White winter -
Frost and tangerines.
Another day
Motionless -
So?
Colorfull magazines
In a full Waiting Room;
Waiting.
Time is up -
Children walking home.
See you tomorrow

Sounds good. Did you usually write in english and then translate it to your language or is the other way around?

Thank you.
I always write in Portuguese. I only translate the material when I want to post here and receive opinions.
I don’t have the capacity to create when I am thinking in English. Nothing wrong with English, is just that I am not use to think in metaphors and associations of meaning when thinking with it. When I use it to translate, I enjoy the freedom that the language offers, the malleability of it, but I have never tried to compose anything originally in English (although I have some knowledge of the Iambic pentameter verse and the patterns of English accentuation).

春深く腐りし蜜柑好みけり
full of spring
rotten oranges

糸瓜咲いて痰のつまりし仏かな
sponge gourd has bloomed
choked by phlegm
a departed soul

bump 2
One I wrote while I was drunk after having a smoke. Following basic 5,7,5.
4:10AM, dark
The sun rises, hither light
Time passes, nightfall.
Shimmering, a thing among things,
A stillborn's ascending beautiful soul.
Up and down, the sun like a yoyo.

The smell of tangerines
Then the sounds of coffee morning,
The train rumbles on.
i cum on her feet
good boy, she says while smiling
i lick it all up
Push push push
From nothingness to pure form
Crawling soft bones
A soft and vulnerable heart
A tit of clay
a spear of dust
I raped a girl
Around the bush,
motions living wells.
Behind the rock,
Mid heaven on the clock.
the endless ticking
a looming storm of dead noise
empty purposes
up above this text

Europe the cuck shed
Invites Abdul and Ahmed
To rape their women
Deep in Baltimore
A group of coons on the prowl
Screeches of "muh dick"

The place with nothing to see -
Go figure.
