i shouldn't be so
confident right now but i
am, it sounds silly

because i am used
to having low self esteem
and now have pretty

high self esteem well
it's ironic I'm confident
and I'll deal with it

The only thing scarier than spiders
Are guns
The only thing scarier than these
Must be some sort of spider gun
Would that be a gun made of spiders
Or a spider made of guns?

Echoes in the spring
Rising sun overcome with joy
Petals fall sudden

Knife cuts among friends
Forgotten in front of joy
Music plays truthful

Summer spreads carefree
Singing bird destined to pass
Petals fall greedy

Struggles of fire
Autumn rain is free to be
Wolf howls with relief

a lot of growing
old is seeing the people
who had been around

as icons die and
become a part of the past
and then much later

historical icons

the nonsense of this

don't take a bath when you're thirsty.

don't settle for wooden fruit.

let your life be bountiful

let it be okay to have the things you need

we can't be trusted with this flame

we can't be trusted to tend to it

we can't be trusted not to let it burn our lives down

and we cannot be trusted not to let it die quietly in our midst.

premature

immature

what we've lost we may never know

what we've lost we may never get back.

sometimes I pray we're given another chance

to keep it alive.

to care

Adam West pulled down more pussy than Hugh Hefner.
The Batman and Robin orgies are legendary.
If I were there, I would have been the Joker.
But were there drugs? That would have been ironic.

Na na na na na
na na na na na na na
na na na na Batman!

Not quite a haiku, but that's okay.

I remember reading the comments
To a Bob Dylan song on YouTube
One person's was weird
So I checked out their profile
They had posted just one thing
A video of them eating a bowl of cereal
Maybe schizophrenia is when
You're the only one in on the inside joke

I'd rather listen to classical than pop crap any day.
I'd rather get a blow job than write haiku.
I'd rather write haiku than get my work done.
I work better listening to classical music.
I could go for a $20 happy ending.

so many people
segregate themselves to some
corner of the world

and only make stuff for
themselves and their tribe and then
find themselves thrown to

another tribe then
form some kind of new tribe with
the tribe they are put

into by work, love, friends
etc etc etc or cast out as
tribes grow and then shrink

if i hear the kind
of classical music that sounds
like people are in

the process of destroying
their instruments it reminds
me of say close

encounters of the third
kind. The track is called Edgard
Varese-Octandre for Small

Orchestra, stick with the
Piano thing by Alan Hovaness
which is nice but

Squidward is having nightmares right now....."Sppooonge BOB!!!
You just destroyed an
entire Orcestra!!!"

Time to be a whore.
Chemistry exam gang bang.
Two at the same time.

Two different exams.
How many whores can do that?
Double the money.

Those silly Arabs.
They'll never learn chemistry.
If I cheat for them.

Cell phones are awesome.
Old teachers don't watch for them.
Or Apple watches.

Talk about James Bond.
Super-spy gadgetry cheat.
Cha-cha-cha-cha Ching!

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
And ain't nothing in this world for free
No, I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know I wish I could
Oh, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
