11/10/24 Haiku for the Day

The sun of freedom
Only radiates more brightly
When forced into a dark chamber

Blast from the past:

No more politics
To dilate our eyes as we
Look upon the world

Healing emulates
Even from what might be the
Most painful venom

Blast from the past:

When they are hurting,
Why do some feel natural
Hurting others too?

There’s nothing for us,
And there’s nothing against us.
We’re here by default.

Blast from the past:

I can’t go on, I’ll
Go on, keeping going on,
Until I go on.

We can’t see those past
Nor know all people to come;
Eternal present

Blast from the past:

To see the future
As if it were. What awful
Past will lead to this?

Climbing down from their
Pedestal: Looks less severe
In comparison

Blast from the past:

The route is much more
Important to me than the
End destination

When you finally
Stand atop the mountain’s peak,
You loose the great climb

Blast from the past:

Climb up the mountain
Plant your flag to stake your claim
Accomplish nothing

You will fall back down
To earth eventually:
Gravity’s promise

Blast from the past:

Wretched of the earth
Living with bad surroundings
Tragic deception

I won the battle
To discover it does mean
More than the whole war

Blast from the Past:

Even though it is
Often full of strife, at
Least I have a life.

Just dance all that rain
There is not a shape for you
Your future awaits

Blast from the Past:

Established approach?
My only coherence lies
In improvisation

Your cry never ends!
Even the blades of grass will
Remember your sound

Blast from the Past:

Every piled up
Tomorrow will become an
Empty yesterday.
