Haiku Theory: Politics
Hysteria sells
So it’s repackaged often
Gaslighting voters
They use a weakness
To force voters to relent
Then embrace false truths
We delude ourselves
Each with their version of truth
Naive Realism

Haiku Theory: CONTEMPLATION
We gaze and we drift
as we contemplate our lives
Unique in our minds
Alone in the dark
Writing poems about life
Watching it pass by
The journey we take
Is a journey we endure
In hope of freedom

Haiku Theory: COMPLEXITY
A small seed contains
the wisdom to germinate
But without a brain
We are all complex
Billions of cells orchestrate
A sentient one
As entropy grows
Thermal equilibrium
Forms complexity
As humans evolve

Haiku Theory: LIFE
Sifting through the mess
I find what I’m looking for
In my memory
When life seems unfair
The universe knows what’s best
So go with the flow
Building on the past
We stand in the present form
Older and wiser

All the bag holders
Who get stuck at the top
Are waiting in vain
For their stock to pop
In theory
Everyone wants the gain
But in reality

Steady and slow
Yet we never do

in perfect sync

And they were ashamed

A thought comes to mind
That’s hard to convey

Clever and enduring

Arranged into rhymes
Language comes alive
