Being in love
With someone—
Fragile
As glass;
Being in love
With yourself—
Strong
As stone

Don’t miss your cold love
Miss the warmth you let me feel
About myself —
Even the pain in my chest, and the shallowness of my words and breath, are Zen if your labels are loose.

Expect more traditional haiku shortly.
I forget their names
and I din't visit them, but
they're like my children
don't **** with my children
nothing you can do
'cos when I touch myself, I
always think of you
no need for imagery, I just break out the 'ol memory reel

Her dumpster full
Full to the brim

My nut aroma
Fills the room
like a strong
Musky wind

So much nut
I could go swim

For who am I?

The nut king
Apocalypse!
impending doom!
don't save your cash!
it's coming fast!

consume!
consume!
consume!
the world is ending,
this I know.
Because the Bible tells me so.

So, umm...
might wanna drop a 20 in thar collection plate
