(Today and next Thursday are collections. I forgot that I put all of my haiku into one file, which reached 13 pages. So, I split the collection in half. Also, I know haiku are supposed to be about nature, so not all of these fall under the category. Just don’t remember what you call a non-nature poem that goes 5-7-5 like a haiku. Sure somebody in the comments will answer that. Enjoy.)
Skeletal Hands in the Sky
Boney hands stretch out
Across the velvet night sky
Bringing lethal light
Creepy When You’re Nice
You try to cheer me
When you are the cause of pain
Do you think me dumb?
An Honest Question
What is your excuse
When you are asked at the end
If you lived your life
Another Honest Question
Do you have a friend
A compadre by your side
To help your life go by
False Survival
Eat the servant’s pill
And give up your very soul
To the greed machine
Secret Level
All gamers seek you
But only the best will reach
Without a walkthrough
Mountains of Shadow and Light
Mirror of my soul
As I gaze at the mountains
Half dark and half light
Fucking Bring It!
This shit ends today
I will no longer sit still
Freedom will be mine
R.B.M.L.
Read between my lines
See the story behind words
It may make you think
New Smell
My deodorant
Smells of cherries and vodka
I bought the wrong type
The Rabbit to Your Fox
I feel like your prey
A helpless jackrabbit trapped
Toyed with at your whim
We Have a House, so Why Are You Here?
My pen is in hand
Yet you sit within my reach
There are other rooms
Traffic Clot
The cars go nowhere
But I see the open space
We are traffic clot
Bumper Bitch
I see you back there
Nostrils flaring and eyes bulged
Hit my car and pay
The People That I Meet
My identity
Is forged by all the people
I meet on my path
A Sense of Something Broken
Something has broken
Leaving me drained and dying
I need time to heal
Drowning on Land
My body is soaked
With no shower to take blame
I pray for cool breeze
Endless Question of My Life
How do I succeed?
When all my time is taken
By those around me
Oddly Soothing
I watch the fan spin
Mesmerized by whirring blades
As I drift to sleep
Bad Timing
Inspiration hits
A fresh idea to work on
But I have no pen
Take a Step
Wander far from home
With no destination known
See where you end up
Were You Actually Listening?
You had two choices
Yet you answered yes or no
Need I ask again?
Ignorant Fool
Surrounded by fools
Never using common sense
Am I the real fool?
Lingering Burns upon My Spirit
Invisible scars
I still feel upon my mind
Making me hold back
Like the Moon and Tide
Rain changes our mood
The sound and smell takes our heart
Which way do you turn?
Dripping Blood into the Drain
Daily bloodletting
Flowing from the leg or chin
In the name of smooth
Giving With a Motive
You give to others
To get something in return
How dark is your soul?
Wisdom of the Jester
He speaks what he sees
Passing off the truth as jokes
Sage disguised as fool
Students for Life
Learning all the time
In the classroom and the world
We stop when we die
Bully
Predators of school
Drawn to the scent of weakness
Pain is all they know
Respect Where You Came From
We grow from our past
While the fools mock history
Proving their short sight
The Nameless
Ever watch a film
Wondering about the life
Of those with no name
Why Do I Even Try?
I plan for future
And every time I fail
When should I give up?
You Can Only Be One
Winners and losers
Two sides to every life
Do you know your side?
Finicky Feaster
You scoff at the meal
Picky mouth before manners
I pity your tongue
No True Master
Claim to know it all
You call yourself a master
You just stopped learning
Running on E
It’s a scary trip
Never knowing when it ends
Pray you do not crash
Lost Time
Those hours are gone
You will never regain them
Move on with your day
Red Light
I see the red light
Blocking all forward motion
Life at a stand still
Wednesday
Half my week is gone
The other half looms ahead
Already I yawn
Stumbling Toward the Weaker Years
As the years pile on
I feel my body rusting
Why do we waste youth?
Nature’s Alarm Clock
Tiny bird on sill
Singing at the rising sun
Why at my window?
Master of Mistakes
Each step a mistake
He keeps stumbling forward
Last fall coming soon
The Chill Begins
I can see my breath
The air striking like a lash
Summer is no more
Learning Curve
Learn from each mistake
Growing wiser with each year
No one is perfect
Bravery of Fools
A challenge to one
Is another’s foolish task
How brave do you feel?
Imagination Cataract
Once my dreams were bright
Then one day they fell to fog
Now my thoughts are gray




Might the answer you seek be a senyru? Clever poetry here, Charles.

Probably is closer to that, but no irony or satire.

Without bad timing, I’d have no timing at all.

Remember back in the day when you could call a help line for gaming advice? I used to do that for Red and Blue Pokémon! 😄

I have no idea what you call a non-nature Haiku. Mine are called JohnKu’s. You can use that name if you want
