Non sequitur haikus

The purpose of life?
Eighty two and still I seek.
The quest is still fun.

 

[AntiqueB]

Perhaps the purpose,
Easily misunderstood,
Is to enjoy it.

Minutes ere I die,
I'll look down, see The Answer,
There, all along.

An acquaintance on twitter shared their latest AI enhanced art…

I gave it a backstory…

The secret of NIHM?
Mature offspring of Emmett’s;
Wisdom in those eyes.

Prematurely died
Riverbottom Gang’s Kharma;
Heals Frogtown Hollow

Quest to right the wrongs
Generations healed, now grow
Restoring balance

My reply to a Twitter art friends post:

short relevant back story

#HaikuChallenge

Nickname behind my back; 9+ months go by & I accidentally overhear its use in dorm lobby. Thought they’d offended. Nope; awesome & thanked’em for sharing. In Navy, my Aircrew Callsign “Wheel.”


(You might have noticed I had occasionally shown my Twitter handle “Unicyclesteve”)
To quote Paul Harvey, “… and now, You know the rest of the story.”

This morning’s picture from an artistic friend :



My thoughts, in reply:

They’ve never spoken,
no jaw lines on any skulls;
they can only watch?

Nothing have they heard?
These vessels limit them here?
Or we’re deaf to them?

This morning’s question:


My reply:

what an enigma
such a conundrum works for
a party of 1

In these last 4 years
I have been anything but
Alone by myself

Wind is not my friend
I rarely rant at weather
Wind destroys my calm.
