A Room of My Own: Smoky Silence Haiku

smoky silence
crater after crater
rainbowed with oil


Added:

elbows up, elbows down ...
the PM's mouth opens and closes
in summer heat


FYI: CBC News, August 22, 2025: Unfortunately, there may not be a hockey analogy for the challenge Canada faces: Are Mark Carney's elbows up or down? Does it matter?

"There is a time in a game, in a big game — and this is a big game — when you go hard in the corners with your elbows up. There's a time in the game when you drop your gloves in the first period and you send a message. And we've done that, pretty uniquely in the world," Carney responded, attempting to broaden the hockey analogy.

I lick the stains
off her fingers


Added:

after our picnic
the heat comes on
between us
the honey melon juice
dripping off the table edge
