Bad word best not to
provoke its presence it brings
bad consequences
Hot air fluttering
Tension build up moving fast
Sane thinking flustered
Tempers on thin ice
Just waiting to trigger off
No mood to be nice
But confrontation
in bold healthy arguments
can create grand results
Written for Chev's CARPE DIEM #256 with prompt - confrontation
I don't want to be around when tempers are on thin ice! It can be messy! Nicely done set on confrontation!
ReplyDeleteconfrontation can definitely be beneficial.. nice set of haiku.. :-)
ReplyDeletelot of truth in that last line...confrontation is an important part of relationships...its how we move forward...
ReplyDeleteconfrontations can be painful...nicely written Hank..
ReplyDeleteyes it is the yin and yang of 'confrontation ~ expressed very creatively ~ thanks ^_^
ReplyDeleteHealthy arguments are always good, but yeah forgo the bad words
ReplyDeleteI prefer discussion to confrontation but it does exist and it is uncomfortable and sometimes feels unsafe to me. Tension building...which you captured in your haiku.
ReplyDeleteI guess it reduces the miscommunication..
ReplyDeletethe thing which can have disastrous results
I love the photo...perfect.
ReplyDeleteAnd enjoyed your haiku.
I had to be taught about confrontation and found a marvelous workshop that helped me resolve my inability to confront many people. I know that your last set of haiku
" But confrontation

can be true.
Peace
