Strange Dreams of a Turtle...laughing at us.

Strange Dreams Are Made Of This(NaviarHaiku488)

Messed around in MuseScore for this week's challenge, for something different.

Early morning,
One star remaining,
It’s a good day too.

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.

words:

I froze at the podium 
blinky blinky in my turtle shell
i got the hot wax anemia short circuit 
i almost fell
she asked me how can you live without sunlight
we turned our heads and we agreed
you tell me now the weeds we pulled out were stuck in tight
i said the recent rains made them easy to pull
she pulled up in a quick way and rolled down her window
I dropped the flowered bag in there and then she was gone
there is a scrungie on a fish 
there is a scrubber on that fish
you are delightful as a wish and I’m glad you’re gone
she asks how an you live without sunlight
we turned our heads and we agreed
frozen at the podium 
blinky blinky in my turtle shell

recent rains

These two improvisations came through, one upon the other...I thought they were related so I melded them together.  I hope you take pleasure.

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity. Listen freely, explore deeply, and for the sounds to live for your eyes as well as your ears, please stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining this journey! Your support helps keep this afloat ... and is HUGELY appreciated 🥰
