I'd give it a few
days. The guild may be quite weak,
albeit not dead.

I should branch out my
guild activity. It will
give us renewed strength.

Death, and Other Myths

The guild is not dead
But it ain't thriving, either
Call it a coma

Look, guys. Check this out
I'm going to college soon.
I want education.

It is a late start;
I just turned twenty-seven.
But is it too late?

The answer is no.
Almost always, I have found,
In these cases of

"Doubted potential",
I find the same conclusion:
The answer is no.

I am content here
Foraging with all of you
For these tasty scraps

If you eat enough,
All these scraps come together.
A mighty fine feast

Puddles

I skip writing these
haikus like puddles in a
rainstorm: cautiously.

Last Hurrah

A long winter is
slowly molding a warmer,
tempestuous spring.

Lucius

In my lap he rests,
His head like a basketball
Covered in brown fur

He is far too large
For the lifestyle he wants,
But I bend for him.

A Reply on Behalf of the WNG

It is in a state
Of rest, far as I can tell
Time constrains us all

I am studying
Much work as I begin school
I contribute here

Tremax is silent
For a long time now, it seems
His return? Unsure

Currently, there are
No formal projects to come...
Not permanently

The Writer's Guild is
A creative collective
For all to enjoy

Therefore, I urge you
If you have ideas, to
Use the Guild banner

Bring folks together,
and write to your heart's content.
That is our purpose

If you have questions
Send me a message. Although
busy, I will help.

I see I have some
catching-up to do. Thus
a journey of twelve:

Disrupted Travel Plans

Twenty-four hours in
a car. Forty-eight hours per
day. Sleep, is that you?

The To-Do List

The cost of something
includes chiefly time. I learned
this in Econ class.

Slow Getaway

Unmistakable
white powder seeped into the
ground. Some blamed the sun.

The Parasite

Carving out the flesh
from the inside, it digs dark
holes of restless sleep.

Nine Days

All I could do was
watch the sand slip through my hands,
pebbles remaining.

Vanishing Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies

To vanish is to
be without substance, yet my
thighs can still feel them.

Empty Post-it Notes

You have nothing to
remember. Your life is flat
as yellow cardstock.

Hangover on Christmas

Grip the table too
tight like a lover you'll rue
come hazy morning.

The Roommate Lives

Where was he when you
expected him to respond
to texts? Still alive?

The Water

Hid like a secret,
patient as time itself, it
yearns to flow again.

Chin Comes off the Chest

It looks like triumph
after the war of sleep, yet
signifies morning.

It was a leap day
yesterday, so I leaped straight
to today's haiku.

Super Tuesday

I need this to be
a national holiday.
I don't want school now.

Congratulations,
man! We average brains have
to stick together.

Ben Carson Pseudo-Drops Out

Maybe he can still
win if he memorizes
the Constitution.

I haven't been here
In a while. Have I missed much?
Nah, probably not.

I will confirm this.
Only spurts of life dot this
wasteland nowadays.

Besides, O Holy
Elephly has once again
dissolved into space.

...In other news, spring
weather is finally with
us. Hallelujah.

Two Pins, One Vote

Hillary wins head,
but Bernie wins heart. And head
wins politics, friends.

Item #478

To add another
only prolongs the certain.
Four seventy-nine.

105 Fucks

This is how many
my ears give to me, you. A
surplus we will share.

Thumbs-up

Natural motions
limit its success. Finger
pistols work better.

Pre-mature

I maintain there is
an immature phase to each
age. Happy new year.

Anticipate

Emotion litters
these thirty-three pages. I
cannot choose just one:
