Arab Spring

Spring of discontent
Season of our disquiet
The streets are ours

Rebellion

I'm the enemy
I am here to take you down
Bring you to your knees

Rise up

Rise up, Citizen
Claim what is rightfully yours
Never surrender

Resistance

In times like these
Kings of men and kingdoms fall
Resist, live again

Freedom

Gone without a trace
Free to learn to live again
Learn to love again

Subversion

You depend on us
And yet you feed us lies
The fall shall be great

Starborn

Children of stardust
Born of infinite maelstrom
Sacred disorder

Awesome Universe

Einstein has shown us
A mind-boggling universe
Floating in wonder

Ode to Abe

Oppressive burden
Lifted by a man's pen stroke:
Emancipation.

Exile

Like the hummingbird
To shed gravity and soar
Elusive exile
Thanks to sunflowervlg for the breathtaking pic :)

Green haven of peace

Copse of mossy trees
Swaying limbs and flailing leaves
In the summer breeze
Thanks to nate-ely for the great pic :)

Nostalgia

Distilled desires
Wish for things that never were
Haunting nostalgia

Toxic

Intoxicating
The smell of you in every
Dream I dream.

Knocking on Heaven's Door

Knocking on the sky
And listening to the sound:
It needs more cowbell.




Thanks to Gerguter for the mini clip!

Three R's

Reduce, and see:
You don't need to recycle
Or reuse so much.

Thanks to bradleygoodwin for the great design!

Skyclad fashion

O, my skyclad friend
How will you ever make
A fashion statement?
Yes, this is being skyclad :)
Thanks to tnmphoto for the great pic!

Diamonds are forever

Diamonds forever
An endless pattern of gems
Adorn your garments
Thanks to RedTalonTPF for the great pic!

Together

The perfect match is
so close you almost touch it.
Lo! The unibrow.

Mad as a hatter

"Oh, you can't help that.
We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
Said the Cheshire cat.
Thanks to nightgrowler for the wicked illustration!

So shiny!

What being can resist
The irresistible gleam
Of polished chrome?
Thanks to Moonbeam13 for the cool pic :)

O, Deception!

A taste of heaven
Then my whole world tumbles down
My cone’s on the ground
Thanks to whipped-delight for the doodle :)

I'm a poor, lonesome cowboy

Lone cowboy rides his
Rusty steed on alloy wheels
Into the sunset
Thanks to oO-Rein-Oo for the pic.

Launching my 30 days of creativity... 4 days late -_-'

Hey all,

Inspired by 30 Day of Creativity, I have pledged to create a little something every day for the 30 days of June 2011. As you'll note by the date, I'm starting a little late. But never fear! I shall make up for lost time... somehow.

As the title of my blog suggests, I intend to create a haiku each day (at least). One haiku will be inspired by the suggestions calendar found here. If ever inspiration strikes me more than once on any given day, I shall not stem the lyrical flow, but share it with you, faithful reader (Where are you? Been looking everywhere for you, you know.).

Without further ado, let's get creative!
