Graveyard Shift

Peer through the window
from town square. No customers.
The store to ourselves.

Darkness deep inside
Ill fate curses my young heart

Thoughts after a Sunday Mass

Drink deep, little soul --
Graced with divine flesh and blood,
I'm made whole again.

The Seafarer

Winds beat about me
while I take my course. Fly swift,
till we reach the shore.

Smartest in the school.

Rampant Capitalism

The hot sun burns like
freedom. For once I am the
victim of its rays.

Ugh...another controversial one. Sorry guys. I seriously hope no one takes offense to this. I just think that, while capitalism is fuel for innovation and social mobility, there are also a lot of "losers," if you know what I mean. I'll keep the political ones to myself from now on.

Why thank you sir, it's truly all I had aspired to accomplish in life.

The heart wants what the
heart wants, but it's the body
that does all the chores.

Food Poisoning

Raw thoughts leak like raw

You've got to do it proper

Jk, it's no worries, just a wasteful post.

Alright, trying to describe what I'm doing at the moment. I hope it won't be hard to figure this one out.

Hands upon the skin,
seated in an otherwise
quiet little room.

Another one about drumming.

What a lovely sound
comes out of this skin! My head
bounces to the beat.

I would've never guessed that the first one was about drumming in a million years, but that's probably due to my own ignorance. 0_O

Can anyone guess what this one is about, though?

The dust dyes my hand
white along with the board where
my fingers fly free.

;)

Writing on a chalkboard? Dust kinda gives me that impression.

And oh well.... I enjoy the beat of the drum a lot, and I've even recorded myself playing -- but most times, whether it be for prayer or pleasure, I simply let my hands dance upon the skin.

Here's another one.

Heav'nly lights grow dim
from surrounding street lights. Where
has our guidance gone?

Wow, that's actually a really good guess...but no.

Dust actually refers to resin, which is used to keep my bow from squeaking on the strings. The "board" refers to the fingerboard (i.e., the black piece under the strings).

Another haiku (just to keep this post relevant to the thread):

Self-discipline and
learning to learn merge in my
passion of 8 years.

Allow me to clarify further:

Been doing a lot of travelling lately...college visits and such. Therefore, I've used a lot of public restrooms and, well, this will explain the haiku below:

Electric Hand-Dryer

Step 1: Shake excess
water off of hands.
NO. A
rebel already.
