Bad Haiku
Horrible poetry for the digital age
29 Years, 57 Days and 78011 Haiku later...
Wind and rain and
shivering at the bus stop.
The end of summer?

some people give up and
when they are gone, and I want

i fear in anger
and frustration i will snap
and hurt someone if

if I don't know how to
fight socially, it seems like here people use their snobbery and elite natures
as a weapon to put down others period, just because they can, and real violence is a real choice,acting in a way one cannot resist

I can't be violent, I don't want to be
