A blistering pace to you
Is not for others

I started writing haiku in my junior high creative writing class. After high school, though, when I started studying the Beat Poets, and Kerouac in particular, my fondness for this art form grew. I tend to focus mostly on the 5-7-5 style, but occasionally I explore further.

I am in motion
Walking under the night’s sky
The moon escorts me

Some thoughts on the night. Love the colors of this night’s sky. How satisfied were you with the day now past?


A coffee haiku for your Sunday morning
The grace of mornings
Facilitate my heartbeat
Glorious, warm darkness
May your day be blessed indeed.

Meditating on things that hamper growth. Insecurities fill that for me. Especially as they’re often unfounded and irrational, to the point of annoyance. Well, that’s how I feel when I can step back and look set them rationally.
Writing is one way I cope. Putting them down on paper helps me deeply.
Also, this shows me the power of daily affirmations. Taking the time to deliberately challenge these destructive mental models…actually, proactively challenging them, is important. Stay ahead of the corrosion.

As I expect most of you know, I have a thing for writing haiku. I actually have a whole blog dedicated to them. They’re fun and packed with meaning in such a small package.
Since today’s my birthday, it seemed like a fun subject.
Anyway, enjoy! And enjoy the day. Seattle’s looking to have quite a lovely one.
