It's funny the things you remember on Christmas Eve Eve #jump #poetryprompt #haiku #tankas #vss #vss365 #micropoetry #philosophy #childhood

Poor excuse for a
Human being, part of my
Origin story.
I've grown past your blood sport games.
I still mend the wounds you made.

Destruction without
Acknowledgement- your wake of
Death, will not engulf
Me. I'm armored against your
Moral flexibility.

#tankas

an untamed hiker
legs followed by the body
conquering mountains
audacious and often rude
Kindness exchanged for the gifts

Snow falls on her face
Destiny has found her soft
a mirror image
The conqueror now conquered
They are both linked by the snow

#vss365 #audacious #tankas

Built so many dreams
for all different types of men -
None of them worthwhile.
Like a Jin trapped in myself-
Learning to let myself free...

To build for myself
Share through counting syllables
True distillation
Carbon tested filtration
Safety rated to fail fast

calls me a bully
so cruel and unkind, she
holds my ghost hostage
to control the narrative
an energy vampire

i've loved her so much
played hero and the white knight
broken blame culture
performance was not enough
now reminded differently

#tankas

i'll share my bottle
and believe everyone eats
my freedom is earned.
my ears are always opened
and sanctuary within.

layered stories and
and jokes for days until the end.
my silence is earned.
energies and frequencies
memories that aren't mine.

Want to talk about
God….. just my version, not #yours
From an odd standpoint
Of seeking agnosticism
Where I want to believe but……

Not like that, not so
Narrowly defined, confined
I want openness
Care and discernment, not an

No Ducks Were Given

Had a #wrecked, old Jeep
That took my heart and lots more
Off-roading or down
Deserted lanes on late nights
She gave much; I miss her so

旭川
震撼させる
内田梨瑚
警察官と
懇ろの仲

できることならこの事件の裁判員裁判を見届けたいものである。

If you feel #haiku
offer a tight straightjacket
start writing #tankas.

If you need more words
to express a thought or two
just don't use twitter.

Or send a tweetstorm.
Like the storm in my tea cup.
An autumn sun sets.
