did you ever know
when you broke my heart in two
you freed a lost boy
this thing called aging
sickness waiting in shadows
will strike like a snake
the six million knew
abandoned by any god
died in their own filth

I’ll never understand how you’re so good at these, pop. You should write lyrics for bands.

Very dark bands, eh. Woke up feeling like that.

I really like that you like them. It says as much about you as me. Haiku like that gives me an opportunity to let some of my stuff out. It’s certainly not all dark, but those were. Thank you.

Ah Mike … can I tell you that I love you and your blog? Or will that set WordPress all a twitter 🙂

Well Laurie I love you too and have for awhile now. Wish we lived closer so we could drink some beer and talk. I think the term “all a twitter” has new meaning now and would include people tweeting. Me, I don’t tweet.
Thank you, and tweeters be damned.

tweeters be damned is right! Andy by the way, I told Joe in NY that we needed to visit him and have some of those Sabrett dogs ya’ll talk about!!

Why don’t you tweet? Even I tweet sometimes. Good place to find out what’s going on in politics, for one thing. If anybody wanted to know. I like these very much. I agree with Matt. You should write song lyrics. Ah, such talent, Mike.

Thanks George. I don’t tweet because I have little to say and don’t care too much about what others say. And, I live in a frugal manner, keeping my expenses as low as I can.
I really like to do Haiku. Always have. Truth be told they just roll out of my head.
