Dance of the mayfly

choreographic display

nobody’s watching

by Scooj

  • On seeing an urban male mayfly that hatched a little too early. I’m not sure that I have ever seen one in Bristol before.

Choices

Nature or anger

topic choices for haiku

driven by a mood

Extreme frustration

WiFi underperforming

work interrupted

Call wait time is… aargh

helpline, no help line

Ungraceful

All neck, legs and wings

the clunkiest of fliers

Morning break

Children’s playground cries

tumble down the mottled hill

then silence returns
