I'm using haikus
To exercise precision
Maybe it will work.
My current constraints
Should focus these abstractions
To something solid.
One final preface
**** Kireji and Kigo
This ain't about that.
I seem to be ill
For I've lost will and resolve
Saudade-itis
Think about Auschwitz
Everyone despises it.
I don't think I do
Maybe I'll explain.
Disgusting horrors occurred
They should be hated.
But the halls, the bricks,
The construct is innocent.
That is how I feel.
It's getting better,
But I need to make my joy.
I've done it before.
Am I living right?
I don't see enough sunsets.
Should I make more too?
I'm scared of slipping.
I'm supposed to go way up.
High stakes, big losses.
If I took a leap
And you caught the moment right
I would be flying.
My corpse is heavy,
But I would sink far further
If it stopped holding.
Through the floors and ground,
Burrow, freefall, descend, sink.
All, so I could be.
I'm drained, depleted.
But I'll make myself human.
I'll do it by force.
Now I've put away
Every nothing I'd conjured
I'm cleansed, Cathartic.
