You can’t be your best
Person in a place you are
Trying to outgrow.
Blast from the Past:
It’s just me and you
What you water’s what you grow
Growing without you
04/22/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
04/21/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Through rushes of fire,
Bits turn into the objects
Of glass we all know
Blast from the Past:
Do not use the past
If you would like to know who
I truly am now
04/20/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Full enlightenment
Opening the lid, conscious
Veiled by no shadow
Blast from the Past:
Faith without doubt is dead, either toxic dogmatism or an insipid mirage.
04/19/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Heavy dew
Brings out the smell of
Fresh flowers
Blast from the Past:
If you press your ear
Against a seashell, you get
To hear everything.
04/18/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Which way should I go?
Oh heart, oh heart, where to go?
Just let the wind blow
Blast from the Past:
Moving on through your
Criteria, uncontained
Like the roving wind
04/17/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
How long can we stand here
Pretending
Those gods are valid
Blast from the Past:
I am a diamond,
Or at least I hope all of
This stress was worth it
04/16/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
What is a haiku?
Five plus seven then five more
Just an equation?
Blast from the Past:
Inspiration comes
From within your minds eye but
So does writer’s block.
(I’m back with internet, able to post now. Over the next few days, you’ll see me post my haikus from the last few days.)
04/15/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Who can I take my complaint to
When my problem is
Existence itself?
Blast from the Past:
What do you do now
That your daily existence
Has lost its meaning?
04/14/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Shouting, never listening
Everything is opposition
What a pathetic encounter
Blast from the Past:
Sitting and waiting
Just as you stipulated
Forced passivity
Announcement: I will be offline for a few days
I will be in a remote area with limited internet for a few days. I will still write my haikus, but I won’t have the WiFi to post them. I will post the haikus from this time later after I get back.
