Alcoholism Haiku

It’s been a long while, but I wrote a haiku:

Alcoholism is tough

So easy to find

So very many triggers

Ad Nauseum

Monotone droning

Talking just to hear oneself

Speak ad nauseum

“Brushing Lady”

Brushing Lady
by Ivan Koulakov

Brushing Lady

Oh, Lovely Lady,

Legs crossed, brushing your hair

Flaxen locks a-glow

… … …

I can’t help but peek

As you sit there, unaware.

Ah, to be your Beau!

Words

Yellow Danse
by Ivan Koulakov

You were gone so long
My heart, empty and alone
Calling out for you
_________________

Upon your return
My heart sang your name out loud
Filled with gratitude
_________________

Togetherness is…
My heart yours and your heart mine
Spirits and minds touch
_________________

Patiently waiting
For a new breathless moment
Of splendor and joy
