Daily Haiku Experiment

So... To try and break out of writer's block and boredom, I'm writing a haiku a day, just to get words out there. Doesn't matte if they're good/ bad/ sad/ happy/ entirely accurate... it's just practice. Anyone want to join me in this thread?
The basic haiku formation is 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables... look them up & experiment!

today's

Court

it's 'commendable',
he says, that i'm 'on the rails'-
except that one time.

coffee; quick breather.
pulling myself together,
under the blue light.

words on the page- black
and white like concrete thought:
un-stable. difficult.


(These three are about this morning, when I was indeed in court for something stupid I did while ill and plastered).

I might write a few at some point
Nice idea for a thread.



There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: 'This glass is half full'. And then there are those who say: 'This glass is half empty'.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: 'What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!

Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense

Oooo Oooo I wanna go *ponders*

Sitting. Staring; tears,
fall from this porcelain doll
trailing down the cracks.

Watching from afar,
sight fails the oblivious
until it's too late.

Okay okay, I'm done being a thread hogger *glomps*
Loving the ideas here :)



Everyday i plant this plastic smile on my lips,,
How long till I give up?
These scars are my biography
Pain and Loss and Hurt
This is my life.

Georgia is my little sis :)
Becky is my Twin x
Sammy=awesome to the frigging max. Watchers council and scooby gang extraordinaire, my Buffy buddy love.

Love is just a chemical, no matter the origin, we give it meaning by choice.

love can be a friend,
but sometimes this isn't so,
love can tear you down.
