haikus for change or infinitesimal


o1.
bandaids for the earth
where she’s splitting at the seam
and soft butterfly kisses
 
o2.
flower crowns for every head
turned down, make lonely corners
of mouths lift up. smile.
 
wipe away the clouds
and see the sunray smiles
warm cold loneliness
 
o3.
kind words on paper 
aeroplanes and folded cranes
one thousand make one small wish
 
o4.
warmth of an embrace
arms around me. trapping me
a sweater to warm my heart
 
o5.
making something out
of all the small sweet nothings
infinitesimal

magnificientfailwrites

hello there. i am the child of nonsense, madness and whatever happens to lie in between. my pastimes are flying on the tails of comets, wishing on dying stars and procrastinating like due dates will never come. i go by nathan. writing is probably my favourite pastime, and the only thing i believe i am really adequate at. i plan on pursuing the career path of a content free-lance artist, writer, and creator of all things out there. (that means critique is welcome as well as requests.) i write more than poetry, but that is on my official writing blog. this is merely for my poetry. (i mostly write prosetry and drabbles nowadays, so that is all right.) most of my pieces are 'confessional'. i take my heart from my sleeve and glue it to paper to put it metaphorically. i can think of nothing more to say. icon by shira_matu (twitter)
