A Few Haiku's
Blooms
Stale air in a vase
filled with water and flowers,
becomes beautiful.
Balancing Act
Pendulum of life
the goal of balance remains,
centered at zero.

Grandiosity
In a world
filled with a
trillion sociopaths
I am but one,
sometimes I'm two
depending on who
you ask, just don't
ask me.

Like a kite
Like a kite is my mind...
Sometimes it soars
high in the sky
And sometimes it
struggles to fly...
Sometimes it soars
high in the sky
And sometimes it

Sets Fire to the Rain
A nerve
hit
sharp;
ploughed under,
not
over the top
each
word
counts …
extraordinary pain
turned into
softened edges.
Mind sifted
heart gifted
delayed reaction
months later
returning
to check
state
of
consciousness.
Some angels
suffer
unduly
for their poetry.

The way...
before heaven
& earth
abstract images
formless
deep
dark
& silent
clarification
by stillness
survival
by destruction
birth
of the eternal
moment
with flexibility
balance
& uncertainty
it moves freely
beyond laws
& emotions
...the way
of necessity

Conveying a Subtle Point is like
.. explaining to the
semi-literate that there's
a 'b' in subtle

Grand Mal
Trembling,
shaking,
foam.
Teeth
bite the
tongue.
Blood
Echoes
dark.
Light,
dark,
light.
Headache.
Blood.
A4 - the tone.
Foam.
Spoon holds the
tongue.
Am
I
Alive?

All in All
The brick wall
I always threaten
to drive my car into
has been painted pink
and is unappealing,
I can't have anything.

I could have walked ..
bloke on the street asked
if I had any spare cash?
I said no, and felt bad; there's
my taxi home stash ..

The Magic Of Music
music, sound that lives
each note has a pulse of its own
one colour
character that vibrates
an identity
a sound
a pebble in a well
echoing before vanishing into silence.
