Hi! I am reading mostly existentialism these days but am also keen on Freud, Marx and Lao Tsu. I am retired and living with my wife in Scotland. My main interest is haiku.

Welcome Paul. Dive in. The waters lovely.

Beware of danger.
Hostile forces lie within
Scotland is safer.

Do you realise you have two lines to what could be a wonderful haiku here? You're just missing the middle line.

Words race through my head
And scatter like falling leaves
To write a haiku

Welcome, Paul.

No middle line. Never mind.

Did I say "wonderful" haiku? Hmmm...? Funny's good, too.

Waiting to read,
a very short poem Lest,
the mind wanders.
