A room of My Own: Lopsided Moon Haiku

lopsided moon ...
eyes fixed on my wife
straddling me


FYI: This haiku could be read as a sequel and a prequel to the following ones respectively:

butterflies mating
my wife's hand made to fit
inside my palm


And 

beads of sweat
between my wife's breasts
yet this impulse ...



Added:

slanted moonlight
slow, slow curving of her breast
into my dream


Added:

a box of letters
in dusty attic light
I recover
my young self once caught
in someone's love bonfire


Added:

a queue for gas
out of the blue call answered
by tree swallow song


FYI: A small and striking songbird, the tree swallow is renowned for its acrobatic flight and dazzling plumage. It features glossy, iridescent blue-green upperparts that gleam in the sunlight.


Added:

a white raven
back and forth, back and forth 
distant sirens


FYI: White ravens are exceptionally rare in the wild—occurring in roughly 1 in 30,000 birds. North America's two main hotspots for these sightings include:

1 Vancouver Island, British Columbia: The coastal area around Qualicum Beach and Parksville is widely considered the unofficial "White Raven Capital". 

2 Anchorage, Alaska: White ravens are occasional, viral sensations in Anchorage.


Added:

sunlit hillside
a tumbling waterfall
of scarlet


Added:

time to live 
with what remains ...
blossom rain
