Middle of the night
Do not sleep but write some more
Haikus for stranger
at last
And free forever ^_^
This is the only
debt as a connection brews.
Strangers turn to fri
Flying through the skies
With angels: happyends.

"Maps"
Towns without people
And rivers with no water
But I found the way

After years of war
Finally could bask in the
Forbidden sunshine

Pick up Sticks

I still know how to
count, but I forgot the words
...five, six, pick up sticks...

Hypnopeadic chants

Consumer Markets

Dangerous to those
who don't have money, but like
spending. Credit kills.

Never a Dull Moment

...Just one involving
stress, anxiousness, exhaustion,
or all the above.

The Haiku to End All Haikus

It would have to be
more epic than this one. The
struggle continues.

T-Minus One Week

...until the bomb goes
off, fragmenting my mind to
air it out. One week.

The Third Haiku

This is the haiku
that's kind of just there, looming
like a cloud. Then gone.

Shower Drainage Problems

By the end, water
kisses my feet. I will drown
in just two more years.

Too Many Halls

Labyrinths are just
as dark as old buildings, but
may have less music.

This won't be daily for me, but here's a haiku.

Time is a Cruel Mistress

The eternal time,
always continues to flow,
leaving me behind.

Thanks for stopping by!
I've written a lot of time
themed haikus myself.

Four haikus of awesome

No preparation
Got sixteen on twelve points with
Improvisation

I had half a year
But I am a victim of
Procrastination

Everyone prepared
Quite long and complex speeches
For presentation

With only a draft
Discussing utopia
Got eighty percent

6 HAIKUS OF AWESOMENESS

@Salis #1-up'd

Sunbond

Kneel at the altar,
despite frailty. The gold
star slowly rises.

Jubilation

I am the finished.
Release me from this cage of
ice. I'll be the thawed.

Aeris

She is the future
of this kingdom of the sky.
Bow, but keep heads up.

Dawn's Seraphim

Like a sword raised in
triumph, let her breathe life back
to frozen domains.

The Ordeal

Guilt and innocence
are held in balance until
one man tips the scales.

The Clerics

Good starts lead to good
finishes, say announcers.
Swing away, healers.

to play with the heart I loved.
Still life won't try me.

Want to switch the town
Change surroundings and move on
It's expensive though.

And my so called "friend"
At the age of twenty-one
Can't leave mommas nest

Response to A Haiku a Day 2015-05-17 20:15:38


I believe I owed this page 14 haikus from a dark time. I've finally found a topic worthy of said haikus.

Longing

The last one to go
is the first one to have not.
I am suffering.

Last Stand

Down in the backyard,
it makes its mark. Soon, the wind
will carry it off.

The View

Forever tainted
by the backdrop, this scene is
uniform again.

High Above

High above, I see
the changes made, like acid
eating at my heart.

The Stare

Voices chatter, glass
shatters, and water pours. The
stare is all I hear.

The Cake

It tasted moist like
dogs bathed in fear, whimpering
all the way to Hell.

J.R.R. Tolkien

The man presented
the prosecution and the
defense. Both are right.

The Chief Peril

Happiness is a
danger. The danger. Caution
is due for such words.

Happy Birthday

The phrase is poison.
It is only mocking for
those who have no more.

Schrodinger's Cat

Heil those who come back
from the dead for the moment
when you unbox them.

The 2nd-to-Last Straw

...is always the straw
drawn. I want to just throw a
fit for once. I'm done.

7,034 Characters Remaining

Shit, now just seven
thousand and seven. Shit, now
only six thou- WAIT!

Pornographic 3rd Party Advertisements

It's good to know that,
now that I'm eighteen, this is
legal. Freedom sucks.

DRAGONDROP

It just occurred to
me that I have no idea
who DRAGONDROP is.

Off Topic

These was supposed to
be depressing poems. What
went wrong, dare I ask?

I'm Over It

I'm not really that
over it, but I put up
this façade to please.

Yesterday

The Beatles were right.
Troubles inch closer unless
you stare them down hard.

Light Up

It's kind of the thing
I can legally do now.
I never will, though.

Only 3 More Years until I can Legally Ring up Alcohol at the Grocery Store I Cashier At

However, I would
like to think I won't still work
there in 3 more years.

Eighteen

Sounds dangerous on
my tongue. An age for taking
action. Viagra.

That was more than 14, guys. I just lost track. Anyway, here's another one for today:

Let's Try that "Eighteen" Haiku Again

This isn't about
Viagra. That's eighty, not
eighteen. Or...I hope.

Stage 4

Everyone keeps
screaming, yet soon the noise falls
backwards into sleep.

A skirt holds a smile,
Definitely killer.
Makes her boy quiver.
