Our collapse won’t give
Us the dignity of a
Violin to play
Blast from the Past:
Are we flying, or
Simply falling more slowly,
Prolonging our crash?
11/11/24 Haiku for the Day
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
11/9/24 Haiku for the Day
Anticipation
Irresistibility
Exhilaration
Blast from the Past:
The roving wind
Patterned air pushing more air
To a new cycle
11/8/24 Haiku for the day
Standing there, luring
Despair astray, erasing
Expanses of hope
Blast from the past:
In the darkest night
The lonely moon still shines.
Hope for dark days ahead
11/7/24 Haiku for the Day
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
11/6/24 Haiku for the Day
I wander through these
Fugitive worlds. My face my
Only companion.
Blast from the past:
Hunger for beyond
Do not choose this illusion
Freedom is the key
11/5/24 Haiku for the Day
Brief introduction
To your friendly neighborhood
Totalitarianism
Blast from the past:
Young lad standing proud
Once the pride of our nation
Slouched into nothing
11/4/24 Haiku for the Day
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?
11/3/24 Haiku for the Day
Your culture won’t end
With an apocalypse but
Incremental change
Blast from the past:
People soon notice
Their social fabric crumbling.
The world just spins on.
11/2/24 Haiku for the Day
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.
