sidewalk finches peck
big sis rations granola
brother's cupped hands beg
...
Middleton smoke wafts
tongue smoothes mint chocolate block
double-shot adieu

Good,
Very sharp imagery in this poem. I like the twin haiku concept, it works very well here.
Nice read

Caliente,
heh. thanx. these are some of those lame coffee shop haikus...
if you smoke Black and Mild's or a pipe, then you would have caught my Middleton pipe tobacco plug. - a good smoke goes great with dark chocolate and a double-shot of, yes, espresso.
watching the chillin feed finches was a plus,

Tight haiku (s) Papy
Perfect imagery..birds pecking while sister rations the food..
I got the feel of you writing this from a seat a coffee shop etc..I think the entire feel and the double shot gave that feeling to me...Am I right or not, lol
I guess middleton is a reference to a town or sumthing....but do get the smoke wafts is indeed smoke wafting.
Really like this set of haikus...doesnt need more...doesnt need less..Just right
