American What a hideous waste of everything beautiful.
In a grand release of exposition did I stumble through this mess. Thrown into the midst of my own story. Where am I? Who am I? What did I have for dinner the night before? The night before that? Does it matter? Yes, I suppose it does. It's all supposed to matter right? That's the whole purpose of the story and if the story doesn't matter then the elements don't matter and if the elements don't matter than I don't matter. Wait. I don't, do I? But I'm here and I'm supposed to do something. But what is that something? Ah **** it. That's what I get for coming in on the back end of the story I guess.

Our Haiku
A mess of things. That's what they were are have been since the world had become aware of her sad existence: A bleak tale of little misfortune and unimaginable distress. The powerful sources of melancholy have claimed another victimless victim! For you see, she is not a hot mess, she is a glorious problem. And a hideous waste of everything beautiful.

Her
In the bounds of space there is a place where the corners form this infinite case of dwelling. And in the walls there are empty calls from the people places things direction to somewhere else you take it and you meet greet the different consciouses that come out to linger here there where wherever the corridors take you us me to the desert of a deserted movie theater to the ocean of crocodiles set free across the tennis courts outside but you us me can't get outside. but you are outside. Outside of what is was might be real before and maybe after it won't be the same the name is there but you've perhaps forgotten what it is was might be for you us me neither here there where it's gone. But it will come back.

The Infinite Apartment Complex
Half completed thoughts are like Half completed memories are like Half accepted duties are like Half anticipated woes. Half completed days are like Half completed lives are like Half accepted friends are like Half anticipated foes. Half completed films are like Half completed stories are like Half accepted ideas are like Half anticipated goals. Half of life is waiting For something else to do. But you're in it for the pleasure And for all the other stuff too.

Procrastination Haiku
There was something hidden in the corner of some place I couldn't touch. I heard it move. I felt it. But everyday I let it be. I let it grow. I let it live. I let it find a new place to hide. Maybe I am too afraid to find out what it is that hides in the back of my mind. Or maybe I'm too scared that I'll miss having one secret that I could keep from myself.

A Secret for Myself
Careful. Articulate because this is it. This is your cue to go, but you continue. You go on as if it matters, but it doesn't and you don't. You see, because there are things that don't have reason, and there are people who don't have souls. I made the mistake of being here now, and you made the mistake of thinking that I was lonely.
