promotion snub
a bored dog
chasing its tail
#haikufeels
calling the plumber
so much water
under the bridge
#haikufeels
thin-skinned tyrant
making up
poll numbers
#haikufeels
back to school
the teacher mispronounces
my last name
#haikufeels
teacher's pet
on a short leash
#haikufeels
Do I sculpt #karma
Or is it in DNA
Just ask The Raven
towering nostalgia
a sculpture made
from 8-track tapes
#haikufeels
hipster breakfast
the obligatory
man-bun

The Daily Dread
Yesterday
I opened my eyes
There were two shoes on the step
Put on my shoes
Went to work
There were no shoes on the step
After the accident
For many mornings
I opened my eyes
Put on my shoe
Took my crutches
Went to work
There was one shoe on the step
Everythings withered
For no additional gain
Long cold nights ahead
letting the day gain
purchase on my attention
as dreams slink away
Only my inner thoughts to watch
As I swaddle into an evening swatch
Although I may be bone dead tired
Dawns on withering conscious frame
With nothing to lose and all to gain
Additional input may be required
A frog on a log
Obsessed on a midair fly
Ribbit Ribbit (slurp)
Everythings withered
For no #additional gain
Long cold nights ahead

trimming my beard
she tells me
I've gained weight
#haikufeels
egg toss
throwing caution
to the wind
#haikufeels
Monday morning
sunlight ignites
the fire escape
#haikufeels
road to ruin
put me in a wheelchair
and get me on a plane
#haikufeels
death letter
I pick up
the fly swatter
#haikufeels
my shadow
shirking its responsibilities
to follow me
#haikufeels
dreamless sleep
I get out of bed
before dawn
#haikufeels
turn over new leaves
#return to a time before
my get up and go
got up and went out into
autumn rain from the get go
