wondrous design, words become
lost in translation

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.

L Bro - Do me a favor and drop a comment to the post for our Rachel re; 'Ode to Rachel Deeming'...She isn't as witty as you but I know she would appreciate the gesture. J-Bro
Amazing sky-ku & image indeed 💙.
Hi Lamar, I feel a deep connection with you're ‘Sky-ky.’ I have a daily practice of photographing the sky to manage my mental health. Feel absolutely no obligation but my ‘Top Story’ - ‘My urban forest’ will help you understand why this so. (You may have already read because I can become unwell and am slowly returning reciprocal reads) With kindness Pauline 🌸 https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/my-urban-forest%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
Wonderful entry! They feel so fantastical and made up, yet there they are! ☺️ 👏
such a great writer
Amazing!!! I love the phot you found to go with such evocative words!!
Great entry, best of luck 🤞
Excellent cover picture for an intriguing poem. It would be interesting to be turned into a story.
I love how you transpose color in art and words that cannot describe the emotion. Lovely, Lamar!
Fantastic, Lamar! Language has its limits doesn’t it
well done
Gorgeous job capturing such a breathtaking moment!
Color of awe! A better description I cannot imagine. The sky reflects every color, no color (pure white light) no colour, the loveliest of signature blues, as well as the illustrated diffracted colors or the rainbow. You have summed this all up in just 17 syllables. Masterful. This ought to be in the winners line-up. Really well done Lamar. Great choice of illustration too.
Words cannot begin to describe how beautiful that photo is. You captured that perfectly in your Haiku!
Sir please have you hit a milestone on vocal before?
I enjoyed this very much as it paints such a lovely image! Great job!
Lovely
The image and your words blend so well It gives a sense of euphoria
This packed a truly ethereal punch!
Beautifully done! Go MC Mar Mar! Lol
Beautiful haiku. Wonderful photo. Bravo, Lamar!
That's profound, Lamar. So well done!
Absolutely beautiful. And what a great pic. Well done, my friend.
This is beautiful, Lamar! Sometimes there are no words. Their are few things in life more silent than awe.
I'm in awe of this haiku! I love this piece and message! Great work, Lamar!
