11/12/2024 Haiku for the Day

I can now let sleep
Overtake my weary eyes
Z z z z z

Blast from the Past:

May sleep’s sweet release
Free you from all the swings of
Longing and desire

Bored in a meeting,
Scribbling down a haiku,
But no one can see.

Blast from the Past:

Sitting with your work
Wondering who will read it
Utter loneliness

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

Nestling softly
In the space between two legs
Safe, warm, and cozy

Blast from the past:

Sitting on my couch
Cozying with a book as
The storms rage outside

Our entire day
Channeled through the pulsations
Of the clicking clock

Blast from the Past:

Release your desires,
A drop in the bucket of
Human endeavor

I continue to
Walk into myself through the
Coming yesterday

Blast from the Past:

Anger is acid
Eating you from the inside
‘Til you let it out.

Never look backwards.
The person you had just met
Faded into dark.

Blast from the Past:

Nothing’s happening.
It’s just another day where
Nothing’s happening.
