“A Recipe for Disaster”

Take one part overconfidence,
two parts sleepless ambition,
a pinch of untested theory,
and a generous pour of
“what could possibly go wrong.”

Fold in the wrong crowd
at the right time, stir with a bent spoon
under flickering light, and season with
whispers you shouldn’t have heard.

Bake at the heat of the moment until the
edges burn and the center collapses.

Serve immediately —
while it’s still smoking,
before anyone realises
you’ve set the table for chaos.

Words won't write themselves
Pen to paper--get started
No more excuses
Looking for a little inspiration and a life raft out of today's boredom and writer's block. After reading my haiku, how about responding with your own?
