Naviar Haiku challenge 101 - 150

Hello partner, your ride is here.
Just slide the empties off the seat and climb in.
Don’t sit on that spring, it’ll cut you.
No, the seatbelt’s broken, wipers, too.

Little man
On the lamb
Blues

Where’d you say you were going?
This car doesn’t go that way.
This is a ride to the Last Star.
Don’t hold on too tight, you’ll get yourself hurt.
Trust me, you are going to a better place.

Little man
Takes a stand
Blues

THE PILGRIM ACCEPTS THE BOWL
THE SHAMAN SAYS SWALLOW WHOLE

INDIGO
AFTERGLOW
ALL YOU KNOW
GONE…

You again. You sure?
OK, I’ll take you home.
Crack the window, it’ll help some.
And there’s a paper bag in the back somewhere.
Use it if you have to.

Superman
Wonderland
Blues

hofuku sochi 報復措置 - one note of the shakuhachi (or two?) [Naviarhaiku#142]

went literal: one held shakuhachi note, resonating at C1 - C6

The haiku of the week was written by Sôen Nakagawa, a key figure in the transmission of Zen Buddhism from Japan to the Western world.

The shakuhachi is a Japanese end-blown flute that was originally introduced from China into Japan in the 8th century. If you’re curious to hear how it sounds, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7s-wXZWT5o

After A New Year (naviarhaiku313)

Like a lot of us these days, I have some extra hours on my hands. While looking to amuse myself at this most unamusing time, I made this. I hope it cheers you, too, and provides a few minutes pleasure. That is all it is for.

This music is also my version of whistling past the graveyard. One of many versions.

Please stay healthy. And let us be strong, and pick each other up when one of us is down.

Lockdown Cocktail

inspired by the music of artists such as Beefheart, Eno, Philip Glass, Charles Ives and many others, but no influence or inspiration at all from the day's bought and paid for poppinjays. you are whut ya eatz. please visit my Bandcamp page.

...and enough of this "Ramen Reckordz" baalsheit.  Piss off, "Get Real Listeners" and "Submit Your Track." What a load.

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
