really diggin' on haikus lately! never realized how much fun they were to write, and how good it can feel to cram it all - everything i'm feeling, or have felt - into something so small. it sort of makes me feel like because there are so few words, they're all totally saturated with what i'm trying to say.
and because today is, according to my twitter feed, national day of writing, here are a few haikus that came to be simply because i saw someone quote lyrics to a song called "the boy who blocked his own shot" by the band brand new and it made me think of the night i first heard that song, and everything that came after it played.
---
he sat and he strummed
and let cry his song for me:
"i'll make you happy"
---
acoustic notes rang
to fill the tiny room, to
fill my wanting heart
---
hazy eyed and soft
magic touches, we were kids
we had everything
