Haiku
All haiku on this page were written by me (Zach Young)! Right now, I try to stick by the 5-7-5 rule, but occasionally I break out and add or take away a syllable.
God and yet not God,
Only one step at a time
The lines start to blur.
(15 August 2006)
Flailing hopelessly
Waiting for their salvation
Egos bounce around.
(15 August 2006)
My ears are ringing
Too much ecstasy for them
Beautiful music
(29 June 2006)
Smoke floating upward
Tendrils of adoration
Honoring the gods
(28 June 2006)
Oftentimes I find
The most common words I say
Are just “I’m sorry.”
(10 May 2006)
The rain is cleaning;
Washing away all the muck,
Purifying all.
(8 May 2006)
Beyond the body,
Apart from reality
The Spirit exists
(5 May 2006)
Blowing through the leaves
And through my open window,
Surely God is here.
(early 2006)
Bad guitar playing
Doesn’t matter much
If your having fun!
(11 November 2005)
