This is not a DAILY prompt.
yawning sky
stone teeth gnaw the fading light
night swallows day
triangle face
with hollow heart
inside you sail
a golden barque
- going nowhere
#riddle
#mastoPrompt triangle
#imagiku (4) - as #tanka rather than haiku
don't try to visit
looking down at the city
that's the right distance
Passed along the way
Lizards beat me to the top
Do I need some scales?
Prompt Revolution (4) 3 Mar: mountain
Perfect cinder cone
or ridge-raised sawtooth skyline –
A new point-of-view.
@w0dz I just wanted to thank you for your explanation or reminder that haiku are not about words but images. It totally changed how I was thinking. I knew that but lost it. The idea of evoking an image without using the word for the image, and I think also expressing a felt response of some kind. So, the prompt Revolution just confused me. So I thought about places and experiences that are special to me. Came up with:
Wet sand underfoot.
Breathing in the blue beyond.
Waves crash. Heart opens.
@PBW
Ah ha - I've certainly confused you about the prompt! i meant "this is a revolution in the use of prompts", not that "revolution" was the prompt. I'll fix that.
The prompt you replied to was really "mountain".
The latest prompt is "spiral"
Have fun
