Needle pricks softly
Rich smell always in season
Stately evergreen

#haiku #poetry

Drag me through the fires
Hit me, hurt me, and break me
The pain shields my soul

#haiku #poetry

Heart beats double time
Short breaths and heightened focus
Edge of fear and flow

Authenticity isn't something you can try for. It's something that happens when you're busy doing other things

Gentle, soft, and kind
She comes in like a whisper
And fills up your mind

Have you got a ticket
*shows bicep, then kisses it*

Theme park for first date
Feel dizzy on tilt-a-whirl

What savory drink
Fancy bubbles, yet tangy
Mimosa for brunch

#haiku #poetry #brunch

Two of us straining
Alone we sweat and we shout
Tennis courts at dawn

#haiku #poetry #goodmorning

Confidence falters
Folding into itself, shrinking
Private implosion

"Ja, Samuel. He needs to spend less time lifting weights and more time raising barns!"

Mother fuckers *literally* type shit like "retvrn to tradition" into their internet connected, cellular phone while logged into an app that runs on a planet spanning network of microprocessors. Why don't you start by logging off bro

I'll return to you
Once this journey finds an end
When we both have healed

Tough grass holding on
Weak brown, patchy and patched
Holding hope for rain

#haiku #poetry

Desolate country
Shirked of thirst. Parched of water.
Hides life's abundance

After traveling 20 days through the blight waste to see the Waster King

"There's not much here, but damned if there isn't a lot of it!"

Me, innocent, thinking of wordplay: this is a good joke

Feet people, thinking of foreplay: this is a *really* good joke
