Cold wind finding cracks
Bright sun breaking through curtains
A good day to sleep

Ritual terror
Passed on each generation

The joy of baking
Was never in the kitchen
It's in the shopping

#haiku #poetry #baking

I was beautiful
The mirror has forgotten
But I never will

#haiku #poetry #nostalgia

Cursed with healing touch
Watching my loved ones flourish
While cancer eats me

#haiku #poetry #healing

For two nights, I've dreamt
A llama in a goose flock
Does it mean something?

@Standplaats_KRK get your phreak on

Fog settles on me
Hazy malaise of burnout
A fatigue I can't shake

#haiku #poetry #burnout

Belly up, old friend
Pour out your trials and triumphs
I'll pour a cold one

#haiku #poetry #pub

It's simple pleasures
Dinner, drinks, a game with friends
That bring joy to life

Lonely drunk is bad
But doesn't approach when you
Eat raclette alone

#haiku #poetry #solitude

@AmberWavesofFlame

Humble shells and twigs
Wildlife tenderly honor
The lost of their own

"I'm leaving," she says
It's been over for months now
But today she leaves

Majestic sweeping
Towering over hilltops
Draw power from wind

Fences make neighbors
They say, but I feel bridges
Will make neighbors too

#haiku #poetry #bridges

Flowers laid roadside
Vigilante signs saying
"Danger! Dear lives lost"

#sss Seven Sentence Story

The grizzled man tossed a vidchip across the table and asked, "what's this story about?"

"Some guys bring back dinosaurs and they kill everyone or something," replied his young companion.

"And this one," he pressed and a second vidchip clinked hitting the first.

"I guess it's about these robots that free themselves and kill everyone"

The man's rheumy eyes shone as he leaned forward in the dim light, "so you understand why we need to find God."

The youth held fast against all instincts to recoil and replied, "not really,"

"Because if we don't find It first, they'll kill It"

Plastic stars glowing
Ceiling's fixed constellations
Guide me to dreamland

Repeating the words
I heard not understanding
To those down the line

Note: Sarajevo
While a great song of it's own
Ranks distant second
