inside out with fear
nothing is hidden from you
innermost is out
"O reason, reason, abstract phantom of the waking state, I had already expelled you from my dreams, now I have reached a point where those dreams are about to become fused with apparent realities: now there is only room here for myself. "
-Louis Aragon
innermost is out
a secret i can't contain
leaking from my eyes
"Life is a long lesson in humility." - James M. Barrie
leaking from my eyes
a salty ocean of tears
for all who are lost

"It is not the rich man you should properly call happy, but him who knows with wisdom how to use the blessings of the gods, to endure hard poverty, and who fears dishonor worse than death, and is not afraid to die for cherished friends or fatherland."
- Horace
silent enemy
the grim figure of death leers
over my shoulder
"Life is a long lesson in humility." - James M. Barrie
Over my shoulder
I peer down the passageway
Seeking an escape
seeking an escape
please show me to the back door
of this crazy world

Of this crazy world
the only sense that I make
comes from my canine
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
Comes from my canine:
malodorous, sultry coil,
wrought with stink and shame
wrought with stink and shame
yes, life is full of mistakes
you are forgiven

you are forgiven
cold opals run through your feet-
autumn on your hair
Dreams! adorations! illuminations! religions!
the whole boatload of sensitive!
— Allen Ginsberg, Howl II.
Seeking an escape
I plodded down the tunnel
found no light on end

When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

Found no light on endOriginally Posted by mazHur
a one-way narrow tunnel
save me from myself
Autumn on your hair
sun spun lanterns, harvest gold
sheaves of fragrant wheat
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty
~Albert Einstein
That last haku is really lovely, Kizz!
sheaves of fragrant wheat
glisten in the moonlit down
silken summer threads
