02/02/25 A New Day, A New Haiku

Wounded, sad, angry,
Unheard, dismissed, ignored,
Mourning, yet resolved

Blast from the Past:

Favored yet confined
Peaceful yet surrendering
Hopeful yet watchful

What name can I make
To be known among all those
Suffering like me?

Blast from the Past:

Empty your storehouse
Unto others as if they
Want your leftovers.

There isn’t a reason
To hate me the way you do.
Just punch it out now.

Blast from the Past:

When a bear attacks
A wolverine, it’s often
The bear that gets hurt

Alive in the garden
I’m the first joy and despair
Master of those cursed trees

Blast from the Past:

I’m learning that I
Need a new creation myth
To explain it all

My soul is as
Vast as the world,
A deep river
Unfolding forever

A Blast from the Past:

Here is your desert
Where nothing is real except
Your boundless feelings

Joy of becoming
Sin living
Without yet within

Blast from the Past:

The will to power
Evolution of beauty
Available light

I hope you have the
Doubt to see your neighbor
As you see yourself

Blast from the Past:

There are many paths,
But from the peak all of them
Will take you straight down

War complications
Unable to tell who’s good
Removal of virtue

Blast from the Past:

Powers of horrors:
Navigate the terrains of war,
On the boundaries

Finally alone
With the time now to wonder where
Everybody is

Blast from the Past:

Flag on the mountain
Temple of my familiar
Tattoos on the heart

I gaze at the sky
As the clouds turn into
Dragons and tigers.

Blast from the Past:

Watching a fun film
Lying on the couch while two
Cats sleep at my feet
