MORE Haikus I Recreated from Memory

 DISCLAIMER: I know the correct plural is “haiku” and that traditional ones follow the 5-7-5 pattern strictly and almost always use a nature metaphor and so on but I want to do my own thing with the artform, please and thank you…


I had so much fun doing this last time that I decided to do it again!


I know some of these might be repetitions older poems I have written, but at this point, I don’t care…


SILVER BULLET

No silver bullet

That can resolve all issues

Or so they all say…


LUCK RUNS OUT

Maybe it coulda worked out

But more often than not, luck runs out

So don’t wonder anymore…


AFAR

Even from afar

Someone can have influence

On another soul…


SMALL CHANGES

Life is won

With just small changes

Day by day…


MEANT TO LAST (QUAD)

King Arthur inspired your favorite fantasies

The seven star sisters inspired most myths

Some stories are just meant to last

While most others just simply fade away…


THE ABORIGINALS

Only small boats

Yet somehow they made it

To Earth’s frontier…


EMBRACE THE SAD

Just think of it this way,

If it weren’t for the sadness

Would you even make art?


LOOK UPON

When I look upon myself

I feel I can take on the whole world

But only for a moment…


WHAT 2 LIVE 4

Live for small moments

Big ones are overrated

At least I think so…


MEH

I know I’m a fraud

And I know others know it

But I don’t care now…


OVEREXPOSED

I love my hobbies, but alas,

One can only express themselves so much

Gotta just look inward sometimes…


SOCIAL CIRCLE

Losing friendships?

Gonna keep happening!

Just part of life…


WHY NOT BOTH?

Distractions are soothing

But reflection is important

So keep on doing both!


HIDDEN PURPOSE

Don’t dwell on mistakes

In some form or another

Mistakes have purpose…


NOT JUST ABOUT YOU

Stop caring what others may think

About anything, not just about you

As difficult as that may be…


SKIN

Keep shedding skin

Holding on to rotten skin

Won’t help anyone…


TOO MUCH?

Is there such a thing

As too much freedom in life?

Do I want to know?


Peace!
