Reader Submissions: Quick Smolder Tango

Last week, I issued a challenge:

Send me your illustrations of your favorite Poesytron haiku!  (Or in adaptation made in any media, really.)  Even if it's a sketch made in three minutes in MS Paint, it is still going to far surpass whatever I could do, so I want to see it.

FireHair aka Jared took my instructions quite literally, and constructed this masterpiece in Paint:


quick smolder tango
satin as shapes passing a
from away, paint waves

Spectacular!  Now that's what I call smoldering!


Now don't you have something to send to me?

One Haiku, and a Challenge, for March 5

quick smolder tango
satin as shapes passing a
from away paint waves


The challenge I have is this: there is so much imagery in Poesytron's haiku, and I would love to see it visually represented.  I mean, "quick smolder tango"?  "Satin as shapes"?  Even "paint waves"--it is paint that is literally waving, or is it waves of paint?

My artistic abilities are terribly limited, so send me your illustrations of your favorite Poesytron haiku!  (Or in adaptation made in any media, really.)  Even if it's a sketch made in three minutes in MS Paint, it is still going to far surpass whatever I could do, so I want to see it.  Send your creations to Poesytron575 at gmail dot com!
