“the world is not ending today, because lights are still turning on, because”
grass blades still stab through
hard winter plains, because life
persists, beyond death.

I made it to 100 days of living/working like a full-time writer (as much as I am able), and it’s been a messy road, and it all feels a little anticlimactic.
BUT
I haven’t completely given up on writing, and for me, that’s the biggest thing to celebrate today! 🥇🥳🥂

A haiku for current for a stalled mind…
“yesterday, and the day before,”
the sun rose. it fell.
yet here I remain. unmoved
by time. still the same.

“the week-long storm passes:”
dense fog retreats, and
revived, I search, once again,
for sacred objects.

“whatever happens, please don’t forget that”
fail, win, lose, draw: each
one, a single drop. it’s not
Everything. just try.

“Winter has finally arrived”
slow sunrise, blue-grey.

hush now. not today.

“poison ain’t the discerning kind”
give it some space, and
it takes and hates and takes ‘till
there’s nothing good left.

A haiku for curlicue thinking and word play 🤗:
“old times ain’t been gone that long”
try lookin’ side-ways,
slide-ways, all-ways, never straight.
you’ll see you ain’t late.

“cold moon spotlight high above, down below”
earth cracks, separates,
wisps on balding trees swing slow,
freeze, and lose a toe

“thrumming, humming, something’s coming”
honey-thick seconds
slide by, clear paths, open wide.
no tricks. believe. try.
#haiku #haikupoetry #originalpoem #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity
A haiku for that feeling you get when you move a little closer to something you only imagined might happen…
“one step closer into my dream life, where”
words, like Springtime buds,
burst through a cold earth, joyous,
a vision now birthed.

“in my Dream House”
lights flicker, ghosts haunt.
I scramble: Ma sleeps through it.
shadows everywhere.

A haiku for the lonely (and grumpy) old man who lives somewhere in me, apparently…
“what a cold time to be alive”
hard winter, stiff night,
stiffer drink, held in my right,
sip slow, let it bite.

“in ten days, the page will turn, and there will be”
new words to read, but—
run ons, old chapters, hold firm.
forward, yes. (and back.)
#haiku #haikupoetry #originalpoem #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity
A haiku for a hazy, amalgamation of distant memories about secreting away beneath tables and beds:
“countless legs, all bodiless,”
stroll by, and I hide.
mouth pressed, slim line, wordlessly
reaching. gone. I tried.
#haiku #haikupoetry #originalpoem #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity
A haiku for last night and the rain:
“through the darkness,”
tittering talk. cold
nimble fingers tap against
the glass. please come in.
