haiku july two

it really is quite

inconsiderate to block

other peoples lives

. . . [7/9/23]

. . .

sunday morning strife

people were parked everywhere

they don't care at all

. . . [7/9/23]

. . .

she was delighted

turned and saw my work and smiled

and we talked and talked

. . . [7/9/23]

. . .

i'm wearing white pants

i never would have before

oh! wait, my paint pants

. . . [7/9/23]

. . .

and so it's monday

to the day-job, living life

let's do it better

. . . [7/10/23]

. . .

i don't hear those birds

maybe they're done with house nest

now out to the world?

. . . [7/10/23]

. . .

done for now with that

and moving on now to this

what will happen next

. . . [7/10/23]

. . .

i will drink my tea

and i'll sit here and just be

and then i'll go on

. . . [7/11/23]

. . .

how much can we take

of all of this that happens

good there is good too

. . . [7/11/23]

. . .

what is happening

we're beings with thought that's what

and it's hard for us

. . . [7/11/23]

. . .

i'm so fucking mad

feel stuck and did it to self

where is the good now

. . . [7/11/23]

. . .

is this how it is

yes, but also in your eyes

try another way

. . . [7/12/23]

. . .

and it's almost 8

almost time to go to work

it's not a good place

. . . [7/12/23]

. . .

it is not just me

many of us take issue

the numbers dwindle

. . . [7/12/23]

. . .

i have trapped myself

i am my own way out see

even if i stay

. . . [7/12/23]

. . .

where to find the space

where i can hear and see right

where things will make sense

. . . [7/13/23]

. . .

i hear the birds chirp

and the dogs bark as they do

so, another day

. . . [7/13/23]

. . .

i've looked for other

but what i need is inside

and i do know that

. . . [7/13/23]

. . .

what do you expect

what do you think you're doing

what are we doing

. . . [7/13/23]

. . .

i let a day go

and i feel something missing

writing feels better

. . . [7/15/23]

. . .

. . .

home. work. space. birds. what i struggle with is not that bad. subtle? but it's what i'm up against. is it just me (up against "just me", i mean) maybe. probably. other stuff too, sure, but the way i deal with things overall play the biggest part. so yeah - that's what i feel from that week. huh. time goes by. i try not to put on too much pressure - looking for the right amount of pressure. --- thanks for reading! -- take care, kory
