haiku

when i was a childi had a TV Guide route--life was simpler then

with my parents--some things are not discussablewith my parents

early to bedearly to rise -- far tooearly to rise

Odin's daymiddle of the weekcamels optional

the god that doesn't existthe manifestation of our collective consciousness --artificial intelligence

lying in bedknees up, laptop openstarting the day

full day of disc golfpoorly played in cold rain --oddly satisfying

cold rainy daysnuggled warmly in the trianglewith my love plus two

pelted by raini hear thunder, i see -- CRACK!my body bristles

most of the firewoodstill waits its turn --maybe next Winter

raindrops smack the roofthunder rolls in the distancethe cat finds shelter

raindrops hit the roofpounding out the backbeatof nobody's favorite song

peaceful morning--the whir of a weed whackerenhances the mood

i'm cold when the a/c blowshot when it rests -- fuck it --i need coffee

eagle's nest in Springfilled with future air travelersand pescatarians

my haiku journeyis my goal -- a quality poemis not required

hungry tickbrushed to the groundrestaurant's closed

haiku practicethey don't have to be goodthey do have to be

the sign on the doorsays masks are mandatory(apparently untrue)

gold band on my keychainmeans nothingmeant nothing
