What Her Smile Ignites: Romantic IMprov Haiku

It’s as though her smile/
ignites his poet’s mind, then/
lights his fingertips.

Waiting 4 U 2 IM: A Revolutionary IMprov IMbic sonnet

I stare at the screen
waiting
for you to say
anything.

For you to finish
typing.
for the light
to turn green.

Sentences, phrases, a word
that say
how you feel about
now, this second, last hour, today.

But the blinking words on the IM screen
just keep saying “typing”, “typing”, “typing”.
