Slip

Silence disrupted,

giggles echo uninvited,

laughter unbridled.

Eyes meet in surprise,

unmasking time’s soft disguise,

shared laughter ties.

What can't be processed

Leaks from the mind with laughter

Now I know to cry

...

Moments Before Disaster

Spittle lands on her

Can’t contain nervous laughter

Here at the altar

—(meeting the word limit here)—

4 Haikus

1. Come Closer:

Ether on his lips

Taste the poison on my tongue

My laugh kills next move

2. Vows Do Us Part:

Will you take this man

To be your lawful husband

[laughs] “No, I do not.”

3. Soul Dive:

Her toe shoes were stiff

But the music carried her

Until laughter broke

4. Good-bye, Dad:

Bursting at the seams

Beneath a dark eulogy

She broke her mom’s heart

Haiku

Solemn moment hushed, laughter bursts, disrupts the gravity; time's jest, an unexpected disruption in decorum.

Flaccid

When she saw it drop

she laughed till her side split open

what else could he do

Fond memories.

You remember when we played

that prank on mom? I'm really sorry

I didn't go to your dads funeral.

Funeral Blossoms

Flowers in the church

Bring me laughter and joy but...

I then see a corpse.
