as it drums a feisty beat
but woe fills my mind

Infatuation
Scalding to the touch
Infatuation burns hot
Scorching all reason
After five (5!!) really long days of moving, it feels good to take a short break, turn my back on the mess behind me, write a haiku, and read some blogs. So thanks for being here blogosphere! And special thanks to One Daily Prompt and fandango for the excellent inspirations (infatuation / reason).
