Bad Haiku
Horrible poetry for the digital age
27 Years, 322 Days and 77294 Haiku later...

two separate holes
one identical outcome
more waste for the worms

i think it just sounds
a lot like those professional
wrestler monologues
sometimes only with
more erudite language
you can be good poets
with insight but one
needs to be cautious of
anyone who calls
anyone else a poseur
because they are often
hypocrites or failed artists

one truth
failed artists make
the loudest critics

i've dealt with the kings
of college, unhappy but
the lie is that I

buy into their self
placed godhood, and ignore my
own ideals and thoughts

distracted by the
urge to kill, correct, humble
all the self same wrong

and i with logs in
my eyes, condemned to lash out
at the useless pride

the elite write shit
that provokes the stand of pride
and makes me wish to

sit on the throne and
cast the assholes down into hell's
eternal humbling

Girl, 15
Charming but insane
Unable to stop worrying
Embarasses easily
Trys to escape
Fear, overwhelming
No need to stop
And catch her breath
When is Grips her heart

On a journey to no where.

Nature sketches Winter
With Pen and Ink
Sharp and Clear and Fine

Nature draws Spring
In Pastel Chalk
Forsynthia against a Wall

Nature paints Summer
In slender Watercolors
Pure and Clear

Nature works Autumn
In fat,thick Oils
Brilliant,Twining, and Vining

Altogether- Nature's Paintbox
