Current theme: Catharsis

This, my catharsis
Utility of release
To ease troubled minds

The need to create
To compose a timeless form
Whether art or word

Display inner thoughts
Silent views of existence
Desire to ascend

Current theme: Requested New President Haiku

New man, new office
A change in our policies?
One can only hope

Will Obama shine?
Momentous occurences
Lead us out of the dark

Rebuild connections
International relations
Not better, but equal! (the mindset)

I drank some spiced chai
An interesting flavor
Maybe a bit too sweet

Add some more water
Soften the bite of the chai
To enjoy the drink

Current theme: Snow

Pale and frozen sky
Dancing upon restless winds
Waltz of the Northlands

Crystalline movements
Fluid chaos of the snowstorm
Spectral white aura

Throw the sticks down to the ground
