Savor the flavors
Of all that you eat and drink;
Oral happiness.

Enjoy food going down;
Once past the lips and inside,
The moment is gone.

Like most things in life,
It begins as a pleasure
and ends up as shit.

Saw a TV show
Recently, where the chef made
Burgers with his blood

Is this the new age
Cannibalism? I don't
Like where it's going

I'd rather let out
A lipped cackle, than crackle
Blood in my food bowl

But if you bleed what
You eat, then you can eat you!
Over and over

Let the cycle go
Via blood entirely!
Same shit - new style of

Byteslinger, by the
Way, that last haiku third:
Pure genius

The *beep beep* signal
Road runner on a rampage!
Or just... my alarm

I went to a place,
Today. Saw new things, yet they
Call it museum.

I wonder if our
Sense of perception is skewed
When history is

Now, and the past gone,
Like a layer under the
Motive we're painting

Without reference,
How can you see what to draw?
With hidden layers

In the vaults beneath
The collection of junk they
Showcase as better

Microphone music, but no

Oh, it's astounding;
Some will say time is fleeting.
Madness takes its toll.

But listen closely...
(Not for very much longer)
Got to keep control.

Drinking those moments
When the blackness would hit me;
The void is calling...

Bit of a mind flip,
You're now into a time slip,
Nothing is the same.

Reality blurred,
You're spaced out on sensation,
Under sedation.

He stared right through me;
Felt a change - time meant nothing,
Never would again.

Time is ticking in
In deeds! Indeed, in time it...
Flees. Time is fleeting.

Possibilities...
Infinite permutations,
But few satisfy.

Days fly by! No note.
Unnoticed like the quotes that
People say, every

Day. We remember
What they wrote only if their
Roads go: all the way

Time flows: it follows
Alone, it wallows, like prose
Less I juxtapose

Slate grey rainy skies
Gently patter on my window,
Lull me back to sleep

The rain made it north,
smothering snow into a
soft, forgiving earth.

Wake with a migraine...
To work, to sleep, to kill it.
Feel euphoric now.

A haiku for day!
For night, for great! Foresight, for
Ways to store our rage

And let great delight
Take it's place, insight, and then,
Chase the place we crave!

No matter what trains,
Lead fight, we'll fly above and
Wonder why they're down

When up in the wake
Of skies, where the lakes seem wide
Light is all we find

For a few days, to a new

Never will I be sure if

The "Y" chromosome
Should not be the blind shackles
of who you can't love.

I have no clue what
this means, but I envision
a bisexual

man who only dates
women so as to evade
discrimination.

Our genetic code
Builds a framework for our life,
but not how we love.

Souls are genderless;
Since love is between two souls,
it transcends gender.

What really matters
is not who you love in life,
but how you love them.

Much deeper than my
interpretation, as I
could expect from you.

Through the cloudy skies,
A single ray of sunshine
Gives hope to the day.

It's been quiet here.
Nothing but the slow, sultry
hiss of melting snow.

It's been busy here.
Travel, terrorist attack...
Nothing's quite the same.

Are we to blame for
The age: the rage, the waged wars?
Nothing good remains

It's like a chain, like
A game, like some cultures are
Strange. I contemplate,

Empty platforms and
Closed gates, flowers in the way,
It's a shame, the same.
