Haiku

January 10, 2008

I need an image
You do not like my picture
Paint me a portrait

Haiku

I do not relate
No, not in this point of time
And maybe never

Haiku

Two forces clashing
Painfully aware is one
Deathly unaware

Haiku

Low on life again
What a terrible mind frame
Circumstances change

Dirty stretched jeans
Knarled hair and smudged looks
I know I am poor

Haiku

Why are my feet wet?
Holes are in my shoes again
I know I am poor

My toe is bleeding
I walked too far today
I am so tired

Out with the old stuff
Phoebe chops, Melissa snips
My hair is like new

One is in my car
The other in someone’s house
Where are my headphones?

Trying to ignore
Killing feelings inside me
When will I face hate?

Do you understand?
Painfully small these haiku
Ideas fall short

If I could convey
My feelings in these few words
I would feel so wise
