HAIKU #98

When you're reclusive
It's hard to meet new people
So you build androids

HAIKU #97

Life's a crashing plane
Secure your oxygen mask
Then assist others

LYING TO A GENIUS

We're but children filled with want
Lost in our illusions
Chasing shadows never caught
Drawn to false conclusions

Anchored in a fantasy
Seasons change before us
Drones awaiting solo verse
Muffled by the chorus

Desperate to impress the horde
Only one shall see us
We're transparent to ourselves
Lying to a genius

HAIKU #96

People crave status
That's why shopping's addictive
You get to judge things

HAIKU #95

Focus on your role
Leave the rest to your teammates
First find the right team

HAIKU #94

When we come alive
We don't care what hour it is
Or what century

TYCOON

How does a train split up?
And make all the stops?
On multiple tracks?

How can one car set out?
Then many appear?
But just one returns?

The public is puzzled
And glued to the news
For clues they won't find

Reporters keep prodding
The pundits are stumped
All scratching their heads

The engineers give up
They're merely decoys
The secret is safe

Alone in its chamber
A mile above Earth
The tycoon lays eggs

HAIKU #93

What would you attempt
If you knew you couldn't fail?
Mostly sex stuff, right?

HAIKU #92

One day kids will learn
Of these days when people could
Safely go outside

#TodayIsThePast

PULL IT OUT OF THE AIR

Everything not physical,

Everything your spirit needs,

All the love you want,

You have.

HAIKU #91

I'm prim and proper
One polite motherfucker
Pardon my language

HAIKU #90

Those with perfect looks
Have less need for inner growth
Beauty is their curse

HAIKU #89

Those aren't distant drums
Nor is there a storm brewing
That's... a dinosaur

HAIKU #88

Under microscopes
We paint in narrow brushstrokes
Missing the canvas

SIDEFACE

Objects without light
Meaning without words
Unacknowledged truths
Neither want nor need

Subjects without sight
Ailing and uncured
Waiting to be wooed
We're the ones that bleed
