DAMB Haikus!!!
I pilfered this thread
From another message board
It’s the Haiku Thread
‘What’s Haiku?’ you ask
It is syllabic verses
Of five-seven-five;
The first verse has five
The second verse has seven
The third verse has five
Communicating
In any other manner
Is prohibited
Since this forum is
All about the great DA
Let’s haiku their works
The ‘Darn Floor Big Bite’
Album is my favourite
An amazing work!
From start to finish
The melodies and lyrics
Are immaculate
Terry Scott Taylor
Reaches deep into his soul
Some of his best work
The opening song,
'Return Of The Beat Menace',
Is very trippy;
Eskimos with hair
Like girls from Mississippi?
That is very strange!
That’s a nice segue
Into track numero dos;
It’s ‘Strange Animals’
I’m paraphrasing
‘You are one strange animal,
And I am one, too’
The title-track’s next;
‘Darn Floor Big Bite’…inspired
By primate’s signing
God says ‘Describe Me’
A Roaring Lion and a
Consuming fire
Next up we have the
Very serene ‘Earth Household’
I listen and float
Gravity cannot
Keep us down eternally
One day we will fly
Next is track cuatro
‘Safety Net’ is God’s grace and
Protection for us
The following line,
‘Down to the black bridge of sighs’,
Is very profound
Next is track cinco
It’s ‘Pictures Of The Gone World’
Sadly nostalgic
Making love to you
I am holding on to you
We’ll lose this world, too
The next number is
The awesome ‘Divine Instant’
It is amazing!
Think about this one…
This song could be a soundtrack
For man-wife coitus!
After this is the
Great ‘Half Light, Epoch, And Phase’
A DA classic!
I love the chorus…
…dark glass darkly…tattoo scars…
…faith and doubt remain…
Another classic,
‘The Unattainable Earth’
Is the next number
What has God revealed?
Do we misunderstand it?
Earth too huge to grasp
And then the last song…
What a profound piece of work!!!
It’s ‘The Shape Of Air’
I love this lyric;
‘…a world where nets catch the wind…’
I can sit and stare…
And that’s that, my friends
DA, SE, TST
Bring on the Haikus!

Forgive me, Doctor,
But I don't know what you mean;
"Hey! This ain't the Yard!"

Stars get in my eyes
Remember Sanctuary
Greatest fears dissolve
