Who Knew? by Jamie Lee Knight

5/17/2022

 
​This is not haiku.
You can’t tell me what to do
or how to rhyme schemes.

This is not haiku.
Pigeons in the sky high coo.
We know not bird speak.

This is not haiku.
It’s reverse psychology.
No hidden truths here.

This is not haiku.
Lepidopterology;
flower lamp is life.

This is not haiku.
Bowl of bone marrow broth stew;
dip at your own risk.

This is not haiku.
Why are we still reading this?
Just go outside, bitch.


Jamie Lee Knight is a super duper poet muppet hula hooper artist from the midwest living in Colorado. She planted too many tomato plants & now lives in a cherry tomato jungle gym. Send machete.
