Ask your questions, but
if you want a straight answer
know there's no such thing

sing your life away
dance along the fiddler's path
laugh until it hurts

structure keeps you caged
it can also set you free
or do both at once

so what it's broken?
remember how to mend things
it's a dying art

follow your pattern
life goes better with haiku
don't forget to write

today's occupant:
remember you own nothing
pay your rent on time

finish what you start
your mother always said so
you know she was right

Winter Solstice Eve
fairy lights wink through the dark
a soft gasp of hope

seven days of rain
the air is like a pillow
cried on through the night

after me, the Flood
said the King of France, shrugging
let's not copy him
