open season: story in haiku

open season


handsome/smiling face

decorated in egg shells

release: hard and slow


her smile: so fragile

tears seeping into the cracks

wipes with one quick sweep


tries to remember

when things were light/free/fun

love: open season


she has no regrets

poured it all in one basket

did not see the holes


works on looking soft

pulls the dress over her head

dabs perfume here/there


masked uncertainty

cerebral/haughty/aloof

she does not look down


rides thru like Zorro

picks them/loves them/discards them

broken hearts break hearts.
