No matter the effort,
One cannot purify
Someone else for them
Blast from the past:
This moment will pass
Like all preceding moments
And all yet to come.

05/14/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
A day of rest where
I can just relax without
Anything to prove
Blast from the past:
Born with black and white.
Yellow and red comes. Fully
Could see with the blues.
05/13/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
A stale life is bad,
But you can turn it around.
Death is permanent.
Blast from the past:
Why would you lessen
An otherwise great life through
Such a boring death?
05/12/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Deep within me lies
The desire to raze the world
And build it anew.
Blast from the past:
In our land devoured
By myths of the exceptional
Advancing to “survive”
05/11/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Mud kicking up
Sliding down and sliding up
Push little by little
Blast from the past:
Comedy faces
Life’s contradictions and says
Something about it
05/10/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
You idolize him,
But does he remember your name?
A pathetic god.
Blast from the past:
Old secrets and lies
Differing expectations
Weird relationship
05/09/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
Metrics for success
Never depict the success
I want in my life
Blast from the past:
Can you understand
These lives have more value than
Quarterly earnings?
05/08/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
When my disquiet
Constricts my own revival,
Drive a stake through it
Blast from the past:
Try. Fail. Try again.
As long as you’re converging
Defeats are data
05/07/26 A New Haiku for a New Day
The youth who tried to
Snatch the moon plummeted with
A star in her grasp
Blast from the past:
Inspiration waits
It never seems to find me
So I guess I’ll wait
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
