everything I read is sad
perhaps the reason
isn’t everything I read

up through the muck despite

Bing is singing the classics

I saw every dog today
and all of their humans
it’s 1° warmer than Tucson

Day 600 of the haiku notebook project. I’m going to take a break from this project. I’m doing that for two reasons: I’d like to focus on longer poems, and I noticed that forcing myself to write a haiku every day means I sometimes write when I don’t have very much to say. I really like the form, but I’d like to take a little pause from it.
up before the sun
talking into the ether
the window is a black rectangle
