A schedule is the
Antithesis of evil
Procrastination

Salud!

Holidays are coming!
You can find me at my place
Cup of cheer in hand

To share with others
Cleanses the soul, makes better
A tough daily grind

Raise your glass with me
To friends! To Life! To today,
And all days coming

(Happy Holidays, everybuddy *sips whiskey*)

Home for the Holidays

The warmth of the fire
and drinks are both draws. I can't
say I like whiskey...

Re: my Sister's Track Meet

Oh, look: that one's not
my sister. Or that one. Time
hides her one event.

Haven't written much in a while, but I want to get into it again. Feel free to pm me any tips or criticism; I want to get good at this.

Here's two; the syllables are a little off, but from what I've read, that's not too big an issue.

The lamb
In barren fields
walks atop lakes

the night air
thrusts cold into one's breath
hidden gods present their secrets

My experience
tells me haikus always go
five, seven, then five.

Nevertheless, it's
nice to have some fresh faces
around here. Welcome!

Merry Christmas?

"Happy Holidays"
is too broad. I'll settle for
"Feliz Navidad."

Reindeer are native

them to fly my sleigh.

Home for the Holidays

It was just Christmas
I was busy receiving
A coffee grinder

While that is awesome,
It's no excuse for absence
But I am back now!

Horde of Lemons

I aid their escape
yet dread their crash at the end
of the moving belt.

Finished

Finished a book called
"Last Exit to Brooklyn", and
Now I'm not the same

Is it really done?
Is something finished if it
Continues to teach?

Dear Tainted Logic
Once upon a time
Hubert Selby wrote that book.
Turned to film later.

New Year, New Me!

In Planet Fitness
It was pizza night tonight
Yeah, It's weird, I know

So I exercise
Watching the others approach
The pizza table

Just one box remained
Many lifted up the lid,
Grimaced, walked away

What was inside it
Repulsed all who dared to look
Then the trash claimed it

I've no idea
What it might have been, but I
Like the mystery
