Oooh, look at me, guys.
I'm a sexy witch, and I
Can make you love me!

I feel a change comin' on
I've posted quite a number of Bob Dylan haikus here, probably more than 10 percent of the ones that I've written. I'm going to try some haikus by different groups. Your suggestions and submissions are welcome!
The rest I will save for what I hope is something that I can turn into a viable work of art.
I'm still thinking about whether to include other writing on this blog. I might just start a new one and leave this for haiku.

I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine
Augustine frees souls,
But people don't like that, so,
Of course, they kill him.

It's All Over Now, Baby Blue (Edited, version 2)
Bob leaves a lover
Who can't face reality.
He takes his carpet.

Do Right Unto Me, Baby (Do Unto Others)
The golden rule, babe:
Bob says, use it don't lose it.
Don't touch him, either.

Blind Willie McTell
Deep south, magnolias,
Slaves, plantations, blues singers...
Chicken-fried music.
