Giant razor clams
Open to suddenly slam shut
Teasing what’s inside
Blast from the Past:
Inside a conch shell
Cradled by the ocean’s sighs,
At peace from it all

10/17/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
Pinky, not the Brain,
Is the one who understands
The world’s meaning: Narf!
Blast from the Past:
Nothing’s better than
Achieving your long-sought goal
To feel hollowness.
10/16/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
Signs litter the land
Watch out for them, but where are
These cassowaries?
Blast from the Past:
Now that I finished
All of my tasks, emptiness
Washes over me
10/15/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
A midnight meeting
Woke up in the back of my van
To talk to the US
Blast from the Past:
A job will take all that you are willing to give it.
(An aphorism)
10/14/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
The gentle breeze sweeps
Across the stale heat along
The dusty desert
Blast from the Past:
I’m in the hot sun
Swaying in my seat trying
To produce a breeze
10/13/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
I sit here thinking
Up the poem I will write
One word at a time
Blast from the Past:
I must write one of
These haikus. If only I had
Any inspiration.
10/12/25 A New Haiku for a New Day
Oh waters of Babylon
Can your ever
Collect all my tears?
Blast from the Past:
Every tear wept
By the abused is a crown
Drawn to a new dawn
10/11/25 A New Poem for a New Day
Dinner exploding
In my gut
I wake
Cramping
Blast from the Past:
I think I am now
Ready for sleep to find me
Finally
10/08/25 A New Poem for a New Day
New poem
In my ever building quest
To write something down
Blast from the Past:
Some days, your haiku’s
Utterly brilliant, but on
Others, it’s like this.
10/07/25 A New Poem for a New Day
A small blade of grass
Reveals in simplicity
The beauty of life
Blast from the Past:
The spider’s web:
Like all nature’s art:
Intricate and beautiful
Yet gone the next day
