Blur
Your vision blurred
Atonement dressed in black
Alcohol prevails
Used
The empty bottle
Your eye peers at the bottom
All the lonely dregs
After
Drunken slumbering
Nothing but spirit-soaked
More dreams of limbo
Ah, haiku. My favourite 5/7/5 syllable verse form. Back to writing in threes, which seems to flow naturally for me.
There was a time when I used to drink a lot. I don’t drink anymore. And I’m better for it.

Hi,
I like your haiku although I thought it was sad. I teach how to write a haiku when I teach students about Japan. I am a teacher.
I met you at Jason’s blog party so I came to meet you.
Maybe you can check out my blog if you need any blogging tips. That’s what I write about.

Hi Janice,
Sorry, but we’ve never met.
My blog is my catharsis. It’s what I use to get through my days (aside from therapy lol). Generally my poems are sad, but that’s more a reflection of my general state of mind.
Thanks for your comments. 🙂

I see you don’t monetize your blog. You can earn extra passive income,
your niche is good for one method, just search in google: website monetization methods by
