Humility is the only just response when confronted with the universe.
I am migrating to @nomi as of Jan 24, 2023
Sky greys over townOrange flowers leave the roadsWintertime arrives
#haiku #poetry #goodmorning
Aspire for small thingsDreams like microwave dinnersAttained in moments
#haiku #poetry
Lie to me sweetlyLet me believe it is realDon't let truth bind me
Stop looking at meKeep your dirty eyes off meI'll cut you, tater
#haiku #poetry #hungry
Woof! Snap! Boom! Cha-ching!The onomonopiaMeaning beyond words
Tenuous testingEdges felt, contours caressedA thought nearly born
A distant thunderMiasma falls on the landLunch roils my belly
Great shapes line the skyHeartbeats circulate the streetsThe city awakes
With a twist and hissIt hits with familiar biteAhhh! Refreshing drink!
Hand cupped in my handsEach breath, promise and prayerWho will you be, child?
Lunch dropped mid biteTea spills from a glass upturnedPhone rang. Mom is sick
Cacophonous wordsRinging silence on the webSay nothing at all
Visiting old haunts Neither of us what we wereSorrow for things lost
With hate in his eyesHe shut us out from saying"We love you, come home"
Catch a falling starFeel her passion burn through youLive reborn from ash
Evening visitNews and booze in the kitchenDrinking, but not alone
What's become of me?I was funny! I had friends!Now I write haikus...
Open your eyes someI'll show you what love can beLet me mend your heart
Consider turkeysUnaware this is the endSavor every day
What was comes againWorlds will ever madly spinWe echoes repeat
