Notes: My first attempt at Haiku. Written for getyourwordsout's January challenge: Word Bowling. Your goal is to use each of the ten given words [see below], one per line, in a story. This will score a strike. Nine words on nine unique lines scores a spare. Eight words on eight unique lines is a split. The words don’t have to be used in the order given.
Words assigned: vigor, furniture, capacity, straight, edge, colloquial, rotate, collide, pupil, red. They have been highlighted to show they are in different lines as per the challenge. :)

Without Words

~

Moving with vigor
Their hips rotate in tandem
furniture can’t hold

Pupils wide with lust
Balanced on the edge of bliss
Lion and snake collide

Capacity strained
Legs around waist, red marks displayed
Joy is straight ahead

Happiness attained
Colloquial words express
What their hearts can’t hold

Nicely done! This is impressive - you worked within two relatively strict structures [the challenge and the poetic form], AND managed to work characters and a wide stripe of smut in. *highfives*

Thank you!

Writing poetry was on my list of new things I wanted to do this year, so score! *g*
