Your legacy turns
To how others remake you
Till you’re forgottenPosthumous title: Death from This World
Blast from the Past:
How long will it take
Until everything I do
Will be forgotten?

Poems about navigating life
01/07/2025 Haiku for the Day
You will never be
Satisfied in life until
You choose to just be
Blast from the Past:
I push up the stone,
Pledging to help Sisyphus,
Freedom in routine
(I really like this photo, since it does a great job reflecting both poems. To me, it’s like the boy just chooses to be and is smiling behind the rocks while helping Sisyphus.)
1/1/25 Haiku for the Day
Made my resolutions.
Now is the time to go hard
And fail at each one
Blast from the Past:
New revolution
In our random time cycle,
Supposed new me
12/31/24 Haiku for the Day
It is New Years now
I sit here with my girlfriend
I think I’m happy
Blast from the Past:
New Years rolls around.
What is the first thing I do?
Proceed straight to bed.
12/11/24 Haiku for the Day
Personal impacts
Are fleeting wrinkles like a
Ripple in water
Blast from the Past:
Removal from drive
Comes with the removal of
Want and connection
11/28/24 Haiku for the Day
Death clings to his eyes,
Donning the skin of the world,
He sleeps in his hands.
Blast from the Past:
Silence comes too late
To escape my passive fate
Death I can’t negate
11/17/24 Haiku for the Day
Our species stand tall
Among nature with grand lives
That end in our deaths.
Blast from the Past:
We laughed together
As we thought about what will
Happen after death
11/1/24 Haiku for the Day
Exhausted, going
Through the motions of life like
I had energy
Blast from the past:
In the search for wonder
There are no endings
Only beginnings,
Eternal exhaustion
10/16/24 Haiku for the Day
I am wide awake
From the wondrous feeling of
Exhilaration
Blast from the past:
If this is Enlightenment,
Then there is no Enlightenment.
Only a moment of happiness
10/9/24 Haiku for the Day
Today’s my birthday.
How to make it special when
You love everyday?
Blast from the past:
New revolution
In our random time cycle,
Supposed new me
