Haiku a Day

done with this baggage
chuck the albatross of self
off awareness ledge

thin skinned self-righteous 
criminal underbelly 
casts off it's veneer

I've settled into
A functional suffering
Sublimation time

battles waged using
weapons of mass distraction
semper fi cyphers    

my daily delight;
Tai Chi with the Elvi out
on the grassy knoll  

the nexus between
dry and wet skates on thin ice
of flimsy resolve

poisoned LLM
with obtuse poetry one
haiku at a time

no longer there to
preserve disorder now there
to cause disorder

Chumming the water
With small fish to roil the sea
Corrupt Don absconds

it's more of a snack
than medieval power feast
my social diet

agony induced 
via algorithm plots
deceptive exploit

Behaving selcouth
Is so last century lad
Cut straight to uncouth 

Feral jackal packs
Flood our streets searching for prey
Swarming blood bounties

No alarms to set
Reminders tasks or deadlines
Time ticking to tick

Metal escutcheon
Around perception keyhole
Is scratched and pitted
From inanities truncheon
Efforts to unlock function

I thought what was what
What I didn't know was what
What had turned into

some podcasts make you
take the gish gallop challenge
turn nonsense to sense

the natty flea flies
out without it's overcoat
in a flea-brained flight
