First, relax.… That’s it.
Now, cave in through your nose.
Nice and slow.… Good.
Now cave out through your mouth.
Repose.
Repeat.…

Haiku #295
Shall we loose the waves,
Cleanse ourselves from Earth’s live crust
As if “why” was “must?”

Who Needs Nothing
If you give up your life, you’ve really given nothing at all, certainly not anything that you won’t end up losing at some point anyway. So, if you do give up your life, what do you have to show for it? Your absence. And what is absence if not nothing?

Presumption
By the stars, we
Congratulate
Each the other for
Surviving to see
Yet another new
Year, as if we’d
Built it from a kit or
Played any part
In creating it.
Had we a crumb
Of humility
What would we
Really see?
Nothing more stirring
Than the endless
Whirring of our
Perpetual arbitrary
Bureaucracy.
Collectively we
Add up our days
While, individually,
Our allotted sum
Ratchets down from
Some to none.
