#0130 - Haiku XIV

You will never fly
if you do not jump first; just
don’t forget your wings.

#0120 - Haiku XIII

Give forty men guns,
and one might actually
drop his to the ground.

#0107 - Haiku XII

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 26}

You can’t attempt to
Hide your own shadow without
Creating more shade.

#0105 - Cinquain IV

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 24}

Lód

Jest jak
Płynące szkło;
Czysty, naturalny...
Jakoś zaprasza, ale zim-
-ny—mróz.

#0100 - Haiku XI

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 19}

The poet's tired;
He writes a brief haiku in-
-stead of a sonnet.

#0099 - Haiku X

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 18}

Darkness of the night:
The world changes when shed in
A different light.

#0096 - Haiku IX

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 15}

Dry cacti, cool pines;
Vast natural opposites,
Yet each grows sharp spines.

#0095 - Cinquain III

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 14}

Hindsight:
Something passes.
One vainly wishes to
Revisit once more that which is
Long gone.

#0090 - Thought 19

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 9}

Harsh, bright lights;
          Now slumber—

Straining eyes and weathered mind
          Meet thoughtless void—unique respite.

#0089 - Haiku VIII

{NaPoWriMo 2017 ~ Day 8}

Movie ending scenes,
Unlike our reality,
Tie up the loose ends.

#0080 - Haiku VII

We are all absorbed
In our life goal of demon-
-izing the different.

#0063 - Haiku VI

Wind moving through leaves:
It makes them fall gently, and
Without brazen noise.

#0059 - Haiku V

Obserwuj kiedy
Spadam, miliona mil nad
Parzącą wodą.

#0058 - Haiku IV

Metallurgy is
Finding beauty in crudeness.
It's not unlike love.

#0051 - Cinquain II

Fire rises,
Always heading
Upwards to the blue sky.
I wish I could emulate its
Courage.

#0047 - Haiku III

Placid pondwater.
Even a slight breeze of wind
Can form ripples, waves.

#0046 - Cinquain I

The sky,
In all of its
Everlasting beauty,
Is too distant: I can never
Touch it.

#0033 - Haiku II

Flames provide warm light.
Though, if one ventures too close
They'll likely be burned.

#0011 - "Words"

Words

can be

eloquently

phrased to express thoughts, to confess

or represent

laments.

They

can hurt

or can comfort;

a whetted blade or sunny day;

a call to fight

or flight.

One may say

life's complex: c'est

formidable, fort minable.

Life is perfect,

direct,

hard.

Mam dość;
Solidarność:
Solidarity, and pari-
-ty. Grievances
must hence
stop.
Love poems...
Show love to them
with metaphors, with lovely words
and trysts, saying
"darling;"
"dear."
Six lines
with words and rhymes,
millions more to skillfully use
to show, express,
confess
Thoughts.

#0009 - Haiku I

A sputtering fool -
Is he truly a fool if
Others will follow?
