"It's just a half hour"

He says, many times over

Soon, a week passes


Será un año

Y algunos meses más

Y no por mucho


C'est un bon programme

Mais je n'aime pas l'ouverture

Comme beaucoup de gens

How can you be sure!

Maybe in a life past this

You'd be immortal.


And hurt be endless.

And lonely; friendless; this life

Blissful memory.


Better kill the hurt.

Make a heaven of this Earth.

Appreciate the pain.


It's only fleeting.

It shows you that you feel, just

Need find the reason.


To stop that wheel and

Rolling uncontrollably,

Should turn to leaping.

Knuckles to my skull

Yelling "think, you idiot"

Doesn't work, sadly


Cascos baratos

Sonido asqueroso

Lo esperado


Je perds le sommeil

C'est mauvais, je crois comprendre

Je l'ai lu quelque part

Petals


Petals fall away

Forget the dreams of last year

If only she could


She remembers me

My wrongs mostly clog her brain

My rights forgotten


If only she could…

…Let go of it, like the petals

If only she could

Three of four forewords

...What I thought were four forewords

One might say there's six


Buena idea

Será idea siempre

Sin esforzarse


Un test de mémoire

J'ai fait mieux que j'ai prévu

Mais moins que parfait

Once, there was a place—

Full of hopes and dreams and love.

It's all burned down now.


Will new life spring from

The ashes? Only the ghosts

Of the past can say.

Ceramic portrait

The forehead has been shattered

Letting the mind out

Un ruido raro

De unos diez segundos

Sin repetirse


Elle a un visage

Mais n'a toujours pas une voix

Attendra longtemps

Can't do anything

I'm angry and distracted

I hear things too well


Los ruidos raros

De un hombre frustrado

Sin querer quejar


Pensées enfermées

C'est de ma propre fabrication

Un problème commun

Nasal street prattle

Sounding like a mosquito

From this sixth floor room


Una elección

Entre tantas opciones

Es imposible


Faible estime de soi

Bon avec les compliments

Mauvais à les faire

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-05 00:02:32


The Streets. The Winds. Her.


Streets of anywhere

Winds bull rushing thru the town.

Her hair in her face


Her reflection stares

Back at her from the puddle

Her tears running down

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-05 17:14:52


Wishing something mean

A wave of disappointment

Just to make me laugh


Poco que decir

Pero sigo hablando

Diciendo nada


Je veux m'aimer plus

Je l'y peux faire arriver

Mais il faut me taire

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-06 16:14:57


I know it's coming

Hopefully it gets here soon

This waiting's no fun


Ya se largaron

Un poquito de calma

Durará poco


Un dessin perdu

Mais je le restaurerai

J'ai choisi enfin

"Let me enjoy things"

I enjoy not doing that

Let me enjoy things


Viene el bueno

Luego vienen los otros

Es tradicional


Je peux dire quelque chose

Et vous ne comprenez pas

Les pieuvres nous détestent

One classroom in use

At 8PM on Friday

Sadly, I'm in it


Tuve dos meses

Uno se me escapó

Qué barbaridad


Un plan pour demain

Regarde-moi ne pas le faire

Mon tour plus classique

Birthdays for two Johns

From two famous English bands

(One rather more so)

Conseguí mucho

Pero poco de valor

¿Conseguí mucho?


À quoi je pensais?

Je ne suis pas fait pour ça

Je pensais à ça

Tag


Back and forth, back, forth

I played tag with the new dog

Our breath infinite


A dog of some wit

To have understood the game

As though he were man


We would go back, forth.

His breath would later run out

Myself the victor


He’s been dead for years

Now I look back on those old tags

Back and forth. Back. Forth.

Some priorities

Not quite enough to do things

But enough to not


Grandes ideas

Para aplicar nunca

Es mi estilo


J'ai un casque nouveau

Il est bien pire que l'ancien

Mais c'était prévu

Cut the hydra's neck

And another head pops up

Massive waste of time


Está cerrado

Y así debe seguir

Si tengo suerte


Je sais mes mérites

Mais ils ne se présentent pas

Quand j'en ai besoin

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-12 17:58:33


This and half of that

Why's the latter halved, you ask?

Excellent question


Todos los nombres

Se merecen conocer

Por bien o por mal


Un soir occupé

Surtout avec des choses vides

Mais il faut les faire

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-13 15:41:37


The same dialogues

Seemingly every fortnight

No charm left in them


Pero ¿qué diablos?

¿Me piden todo esto?

Seguro que no


J'essaie d'être gentil

Mais parfois c'est difficile

Ces fois je me tais

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-14 09:34:26


Big day in a week

Lots of backing up to do

And then I don't know


Amigo viejo

Es difícil dejarte

Aún con ganas


J'ai perdu du poids

Si l'échelle ne me ment pas

Une victoire des rares

Feeling emptiness, 

Love lacking melancholy.

Cold heart is closed shut.

There is this series,

Reduce, stick figure action

And story. Good stuff!


Promised I'd post a quick prose promo. Maybe you'd like it!

I know who I know

But who knows who I'll still know

In a year or so


Estoy de humor

Para no hacer nada

Pero no puedo


Amis invités

Pas mes amis, pour être clair

Je n'invite personne

Comedy music

Tends not to be that funny

Very curious


Se llama algo

Pero yo sé lo que es

Y no es eso


"J'ai nombreux problèmes"

Déclaration générale

Bears In Winter


Obsessions don’t die.

No, they go on hiatus.

Like bears in winter


She was always there

Her smile is ever-perfect

Her hair bundled up.

So I'm totally knocked out.

It really hits hard.

Response to A Haiku a Day 2021-10-17 14:43:04


I will not be seen

Exposing my weirdest self

Not by choice at least


Uy, está roto

Tras tantos accidentes

No me sorprende


L'horaire du dimanche

Des conversations sans fin

Et, il semble, rien d'autre
