Self

You don't get lower than an old drunkard's bottle
Drowning in cheap booze and the ass-spittle of the spirits
Haven't been there my self, but I know guys who have

Power's Out

Sexual Healing
Marvin Gay on the Radio
Joy Division
Love Will Tear Us Apart
Utilities go down
Bills unsung like an old song
I blog in darkness
No rhyme in the battery of my soul

Rebirth

It's so much harder than life
This blogger's game
Reborn and Redounded...Rebounded on Rice Paper Poems

Shut Out Memories

I keep my distance,
another plain
A place in space, in the dark matters of the mind

Educated

I got me a high school diploma
I took it from a another man's wall
I broke it
Whited it out
I spelled my name in soft blue ink
What's it worth now?
This diploma on another man's wall

Question

Are you the Last Survivor
The Lost Survivor
The Lonely Runner on the long legs of time?

Foreign Danger

I heard a Japanese Growl
A sumo with wolf's teeth
I'm gaijin as sheep
So far from home, a haiku is a place
