RR haiku 088
all i want to do
is not do
what i have to do
all i want to do
is not do
what i have to do
what
should i do
today
add
subtract
zero
blue sky
black metal
green tea
for a brief moment
my inbox
was empty
today is a good day
not great
but quite alright
all i want
is a little bit more
than anyone else
i have to remind myself
again and again
how lucky i am
why
is bad food
so delicious
you can’t
argue
with crazy people
sometimes
everything
feels right
maybe
kinda
sorta
i write haiku
because there is nothing
better to do
america
even though it sucks
it’s awesome
would you create
something amazing for us
we have no budget
i’m not sure
who reads my poems
you do
a room full of people
talking
holding drinks
yeah totally
i know
for sure
there’s so much out there
why would anyone ever
create anything
i just paid $15
for a glass of orange juice
it was worth it
clickidiclickclick
clickclickclickclickidiclick
clickclickidiclick
why do they
get more than me
not fair
take it easy
breathe in
breathe out
all i want to do
is sit on a beach
and write haiku
find a space
invite many artists
ask them to bring their projector
problems
not fun
sucks
i wish
i could make a living
from writing haiku
what you have
what you want
what you need
now
later
too late
green tea
in a white cup
with a blue line
sun rises
sun sets
repeat
thank you
for reading
this
hopefully, one day
i will make something truly
amazing
waiting
waiting
waiting
love
money
beach
a calm fire
almost
at its end
so far
so good
so very good
guess what?
i’m working
on my computer
the space between
almost nothing
and hardly anything
from here
to there
and back
the most important thing
in life
is oxygen
cursor
blinking
waiting
without technology
we would not be
very human
i never thought i would say this
but i’m starting to like
living in new york
click click
tap tap
swipe
we all want
that special
something
from torment
to anguish
and agony
for a very brief moment
absolute
silence
sweet dreamy fluffy pretty
jiggly fuzzy tender yummy
gentle happy cuddly cozy
out of nowhere
a sudden, unexpected
sadness
that’s not true
that’s what
you remember
the future
is
uncertain
country road
duck crossing
cars waiting
the funny thing about money
it makes you do things
you don’t want to do
last day of summer
train leaving new york
more people than seats
everything
always
everywhere
morning swim
an empty beach
water calm and clear
farts
will always
be funny
life is easy
i’m safe
for now
i’ve never been to iceland
i hope it’s as amazing
as i imagine it to be
once again
staring
at a screen
yes
maybe
no
on a computer
you can truly
delete something
time is passing
right
now
global warming
every time i breathe
it gets worse
a new day
no plans yet
what to do
a thick grey fog
blending city
and sky
everything
you see
is in the past
summer in new york
please
make it stop
going home
to see christina
smile on my face
waiting for an idea
it’s not here yet
still waiting
a room, almost empty
just a table
and a chair
i try not to worry
but sometimes
it’s just too strong
nothing urgent
just saying hi
no big deal
the smell of pancakes
with apple
and cinnamon
that wonderful place
somewhere between
boredom and stress
storm is coming
dark and loud
no rain yet
is it good
is it bad
at least i tried
not too much
not too little
just right
sent an email
still no answer
what’s wrong?
at the beach
under a big umbrella
staring at the sea
money
more is better
some is ok
in a good mood
for no particular reason
just because
as much as you try
there is always
something
waking up
excited about
breakfast, lunch & dinner
a great idea
wait for it
it’s almost here
computers
should make life
easy
all this stuff
i want to get rid of it
but i can’t
