The Revengers are
Here to heed the call of all
Fallen comrades! Rise.

Somber shoulders show,
That the monotone is known.
Get up at the gong.

A haiku volley
In the valley of haiku
Folly, rally on!

You're breaking out of
Your shell, wrought in the days of
Yore, vulnerable.

For the end shall come
'Fore the dawn of a new day!
Four, three, two, one — done.

I have haikus for
Sleepless nights and weeks, months and
Days and days and years

What are they for, more
Than clearing out my head mind
You I never step

Over old corpses
I embalm them. Preserve all!
Projects are my bane

Just watched Black Panther
At the movies, and I must
Say it was not bad

I am pretty much
A pretty big movie buff!
So I have to say

She was pretty right!
Spot on in her judgment, it
Was a real delight

You all seem to be
Sojourning in Wakanda.
Black Panther approves.

A Haiku a day without clear meaning
We follow other footsteps
But what if I question and break the
Circle

Rich like a merchant,
Sojourning and soul searching
In the hidden land,

Within the green vale,
Behind walls of poverty
Albeit just a veil.

What about the world
That seeks peace to no avail?
Help is on the way!

Cruising down the street
Smoking tires, sipping on
Tea and juice. Eight pack.

With my mind on my
Money and my money on
My mind. And grind. Word.

Meeting Newgrounders
In person can be scary,
Yet so exciting.

Spadezer and CloakedSoup
Are definitely nice dudes
Who like Chik-fil-A.

We met, we laughed, and
Chicken was consumed by all.
Life goes on apace.

Will we meet again?
Only time will tell the tale.
Now I crave more fowl.

Took a long walk and
Remembered the old days when
Old things were new. Oh.

Philadelphia
May indeed be the City
Of Brotherly Love,

But it was not the
Venue for our meet 'n greet.
Philly is too far.

Since we all live in
The Mitten, we met up in
Our state's capital.

The greatest of all
Surgical procedures is—
Lansing, Michigan!

Didn't know there was
A town with such a name all
The way over there!

Or anywhere else
For that matter. What matters
Is that all went well!

Do hope to attend,
One of these meet-ups someday,
When travel allows.

Some days start bare some
Start with loose leaf, some start with
New teeth, and few trees.

I do lose sleep some
Times waiting, for my mind to
Stop racing! Track by

Track. Trenchcoat-clad fans.
Beyond eons of man we
Rumble in the Bronx.

Can't we get along?
A long stretch of peace, begone!
These eons forgone.

Stark white, everywhere.
Old Man Winter refuses
To allow early Spring.

Gratefully sipping
Hot tea as I gaze upon
The blinding landscape.

Will this fresh snowfall
Melt away by midday, like
It did yesterday?

Only time will tell.
But the Sun shines brighter still;
Warmth beyond the chill.

I'm in big snow here,
Someone behind me says: Ja.
May be late for work.

The train station in training.

"Elementary,
My dear Watson" was never
An actual quote.

At least, not in the
Books by Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle. Just the movies.

Nevertheless, it
Has become synonymous
With Detective Holmes.

This factoid was brought
To you by the letter T.
Fancy a cuppa?

Elementary
Was a grade I learned more in
Than any other!

Both middle and high
Combined! My mind just starting
To unravel, and

Travel around, up
And down, the ladders of now,
And then, and will be.

Yet it still instills
In me a will, to learn and
Live when I learn my

Thirst for bits! I keep.
For more lore and words. Implored,
No sleep. Every day...

I wake up and brave,
The dawn with a hunger, some
Thing I crave... it must...

Be knowledge. Knowing.
Growing, slowly, wise and free....
And a cup of tea.

Raw nerves stretched tight. Get
the cleaver, and they are split
like uncooked pasta.

Like a lifeless gaze
I surmise the skies today,
All their weight and gray.

Await the great new!
At the day break little blooms,
Mittens in my room.

Music is my life!
Incomprehensible I'm
Able to label

Abelton live jive
With ID3 tags like I'm
Playing the DOOM tune

My room is a spoon
Spoonfeeding movies and tunes
Some days are our lives
