The bird in the bush
And the squirrel in the tree
Remind me I’m not alone
Blast from the past:
Survival lies in
Taking full advantage of
Your insanities.

07/18/26 A New Tanka for a New Day
I would expect storms
To take over these calm waters.
It’s getting ready
To explode in my little
Teacup inside which I hide.
Blast from the past:
New definition
Of class—having the means to
Afford a break down.
07/15/26 A New Poem for a New Day
I sit in the park
My chest still
Against the dizzying motion of life
My feet planted, clasping
Against the grass to keep still
My mind roams a thousand new worlds
Blast from the past:
I’m slow getting
What I believe, say, and do
Into harmony
07/13/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Nobody hears your
Symphony of panic
When you’re underwater
Blast from the past:
The first victims
On the way to the next world
Don’t look up
06/04/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
In the world beyond
Thinking and overthinking
It is all too much
Blast from the past:
Sometimes I think that
I’ve really been thinking that
Thinking’s overrated.
05/06/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
No one cares about
Patching up ruined lives when
They are wandering.
Blast from the past:
Life remains easy
For the person who lives with
No sense of shame
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
04/12/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
It’s worthless to think
It’s worthless to analyze
When no one else seems to
Blast from the Past:
Can’t think beyond so
What do you do? You bully.
Harm those who differ.
04/07/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
The stream keeps flowing
Despite my persistent tries
To dam it back up
Blast from the Past:
I stood with branches
Planting my feet in place while
Ideas whirled round
04/04/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
How are we
Supposed to build
Our fortresses of resilience
Upon only
Loneliness, stress, and exhaustion?
Blast from the Past:
I keep circling
The vortex of agony:
Cycle of anger
