"Night School" Haiku
In 2023 I started reading a book on mysticism called "The Night School" by Maia Toll. These haiku were done as part of the "homework" for the classes set out in the book. Painted and written in 2024.
Chakra art Haiku
Seed with bitter roots
Given naught but tears to drink
Grows toward the dark
Salem in sequel
Malus necessarium
Faithfully evil
Oh fountain of truth
Shower me with your knowledge
Now I am drowning
はい わたしの. hai watashi no
くらげ じゃない です. kurage janai desu
はちむしるい. hachimushirui

A House Full
Poem by E Masters © 2025
"A house full of cats, well fancy that!
Has one ever fallen asleep in your hat?"
"A house full of cats! I bet they can be twats!
Do they cough up a furball on your wooden slats?"
"A house full of cats? Nah... I think dogs are where it's at.
They're happy to chase a ball, not a bat."
"A house full of cats... Is it magick perhaps?
A purr that is healing. They're wonderful chaps."
Poem for Palestine, 2024.
Seeds firmly planted,
Scattered through soil
Blooming red
The petals fall.
One by one
We raise them up
Cradle each one
With care and love,
For each one a life
Taken too soon
Before they had
A chance to Bloom.
