it's just a feeling but,

(haiku)

i strongly suspect

we are all suffering from

mass insanity

and no one knows it,

doctors don't even know it

cuz they're insane too

-

like this old story,

everything doubled in size

while everyone slept

measuring tools too

so no one ever finds out

they are twice as big

it can't happen here but,

(haiku)

it's happening here

and i'm literally obsessed

with it's progression

everyday i write

these stupid observations

centered around him

and i feel so stuck

in the proverbial mud

and i can't get out

-

i should feel lucky,
l'm witnessing history
but i just feel sad

an ancient chinese poem i like

the worry seems no end

when it comes to searching 

your hearts desire

even when wearing out 

your shoes made of iron

yet without one's slightest effort

fate strikes and opportunity 

lands on your lap

everybody thinks

(haiku)

everybody thinks

down deep they are good people

with just a few flaws

everybody thinks

they have lived eventful lives

and should write a book

everybody thinks

the world revolves around them

despite what they say

and everyone thinks

if the world suddenly ends

they'll somehow survive

this world of ours

(haiku)

is like a riptide

for every two strokes forward

it pulls you back five

just when you give up

because it looks obvious

you're going to die

it lessens it's hold

and you find yourself floating

and gasping for air

he had a dream

(tanka)

they keep killing blacks

and getting away with it,

blacks keep protesting

but nothing ever changes

cuz his dream was just a dream

-

jesus had a dream,

muhammad too and hitler

they all had big dreams

but they too lived in a world

where a dream is just a dream

american healthcare

(haiku)

i don't know a soul

who gets medical treatment

they are happy with

(tanka)

everyone complains

doctors treat us all the same

like we are cattle

herded and categorized
at their holy convenience
