Uh, oh. Wordplay, seductive thoughts, courage eh? Women. Women are proof aliens have landed and lived among us. Syllabic count of 5 6 2, with a total of 13 are well below the 17 or less for haiku. The syllabic count lends itself to word economy. Your words total 9. This economic use of the best words utilized in the best way is the best of the best to use in this way. Your Satori is a double entendre.

Thank you for this...ride.

    Opps! SPAGs galore in my response.
    Here: thoughts, COURAGE eh?
    Edited: thoughts, COUGAR, eh?

    Here: landed and LIVED among us
    Edited: landed and LIVE among us

    Oh, the travesty of public humiliation of a muse gone mad!

So...you know women like that, too? Who ever came up with this comparison hit the mark. Nothing like a cat to rip you apart and put you in your place. I'm beginni8ng to enjoy these haikus. Interesting. (and co clever)

I loved it. For such little words, it made a strong statement. It was fierce and to the point. Love the picture as well.

Greetings, Robyn;
-with graceful intensity I enjoyed reading your haiku as its composition and structure is perfectly woven for that of a haiku. With two grammatically connected lines in a satori which satisfactorily intensifies the haiku with an aha moment and summarizes the relativity of the conceptual theme.
-The satori, "cougar", and in my opinion only, Is plainly chosen and I also think that it could be a stronger satori and my suggestion would be "lurking lioness". but that's just my humble opinion.
-Thanks for sharing and take care and have a good one especially with the one you love.
Alex

In my younger days we were aware of these creatures. They have been bred in every generation. (they must be pensioners now). We used to watch out for them and keep out of the claw's striking range. LOL.

I had to read it twice to realise the double meaning. Well composed from a good idea...

Oh, those lady tigers! I think they're a high school basketball team around here. In your first two lines, I could envision a predatory female with her long painted fingernails, walking the streets, looking for a potential customer. It's a jungle out there! Sounds like you had fun writing this. judi
