Haiku Dose #2

Progress
the pain brings me back
to the place progress begins
it's good to be home

Too Thin
a sore throat morning
duties filled, back to work
don't burn out for us

Tree
great uninspired
stand bare, but i prune you still
hope for fruit one day

Beneath the Ice of Conspiracy
lips pressed to thin cracks
consumed by icy waters
my shadow above

Your Move
you have brought me here
you dare walk away from me
follow, you dead fool

Wednesday Night
this routine is all i know
i have tasted others
but i have not tried

Contagious
i heard someone cough
suddenly my throat tickles
chain mail coughing fit

Habit
kaleo again
prospective reintroduced
quickly forgotten

A Problem

Plank
I noticed what he said.
My critical mind,
I know how to fix
his flaws
are my flaws
How can I correct these?
Reading verses for others
I have gone around the circle
but have forgotten to count myself
Uneven teams cast unfair judgments

Lately I've been thinking

Now, normally with a title like "Lately I've been thinking," one would expect to read in the following sentences about what I was thinking. On the contrary. I am merely stating the fact that I have been thinking lately. Now, this may sound strange, but the reality is that I really haven't had time to sit and think. It has been all art, friends, papers, and food. I have committed to setting aside a part of time to spend in thought every day. I don't know what that is going to look like, but it will be anywhere from 15min to 1hr, but in one session.

That is all.
