Haven’t been writing a ton, but I have accumulated some haiku over the last couple years. I figured I would put them all in one place, so here they are.
Patience
Articulation
is a precise art, and so
I fear my great thoughts.
Awareness
I conform, and they
see it as maturity.
But I know better.
Death
Knowing that the end
Is not the end of all things
Allows one to live.
Example
Birds fly focused— on
Important matters, but what
If I’m not that smart?
Constant
Metamorphosis
does not end with shedding a
butterfly’s cocoon.
Silence
All that I can do
sometimes is shake my head in
exasperation.
Towards Faith
Tyrannical doubt
holds the truth hostage in the
guise of longing hope.
Growing Old
Being wrong is hard
And more conscious as time is
Inexorable.
A Better Person
What choice do I have?
But fucking, pissing, puking
Through life, except you.
Wabi
Bricks stacked end on end
Make romance in a facade
Rustic, imperfect.
Hubris
When one has answers
To every situation
There are really none.
Short
However many
Days I have are not enough
To say I love you.
